This is the world run by SJW’s. All must live some drab, joyless existence lest we offend others. Celebration is worse than hubris, it is throwing ones privledge in the face of those less fortunate.
Their perfect society is something out of Orwells 1984. grey, overcast, grim struggle for all!
It's Puritanism.
In terms of content, Socialism and the PC cult are derived from secularized Puritanism and Quakerism (plus also the descendants of the Protestant religio-political sects of the 17th century, like the Levellers, Diggers, etc.), mixed with Jewish universalism (as reflected in Christianity, but also in Judaism and Jewish revolutionary thought _per se_ ).
i.e. socialism and the PC cult are basically Protestantism
minus the supernaturalism of Christianity/Judaism, and with
egalitarianism as a secular substitute for the transcendent. Social status is sought by adhering to those abstract ideals, hence the virtue signalling _perinde ac cadaver._ (Or what we in the profession call "the Zombie Apocalypse".)
19th/early 20th century socialism was more of a Jewish thing (Marxism is more messianic, hence the personality cults), but you can see the blend going from East to West - Eastern European and German socialism were more Jewish and less Protestant, British socialism was more derived from Protestantism, but also had a strong Jewish influence; and American socialism nowadays, being largely derived from the same roots as British socialism (via the demographics of the early settlers), is more Protestant-derived, but still with some Jewish input (e.g. Frankfurt School).
