If everyone around you often says "we live in a thoroughly X-ist society, it's horrible, and we need to switch to Y which is a refreshing new alternative", consider that you might actually be living in a thoroughly Y-ist society.

Tried several pairs. Couldn’t find one that definitely fit. I think most X/Y pairs are too nebulous because “society” is a messy hyperobject that defies absolutes

The question is if all from the X-ist move to the Y, does that become the new X, and then eventually repeat the process.

Life's a societal alphabet soup – from X to Y, and Z just means a loop back to A. Keep spinning that wheel; it's the same ride, different letter! 🎩

I would challenge the premise: if x-ist = sexist, racists, speceist etc, Y-ist would in any case be not-x-ist and thus there would be nothing to complain about. In addition: Refreshing signals boredom and a privileged position. Not oppression or struggle.

this could be a manifestation of 'chronocentrism' - the belief that one’s own times are paramount - which blinds us to the incremental evolution of our societal norms

I think it's more likely that we're living in an XY-ist society, and the person saying otherwise is having an X-ist experience of society.

The trouble with this logic is that both x and y say the same thing.
