Not believing in certain cultural zeitgeists =/= lack of understanding. I understand from of a left perspective why this would be important, but I don't buy into that. And yeah I'm incredibly biased, I'm far right wing I understand and accept my biases.

And that's okay to say tradition is bad is to kill your nation.

I understand it's a genderless word, but it seems counter intuitive to the language to use a words that, from what I've always been told, refers to multiple people.

Wouldn't "it" work better as a pronoun?

See that's where this all leads, you now have people calling themselves multiple people. You can brush it off as people can do whatever they want, but we're seeing a fundamental change in how we treat certain things. When you have people in society that are identifying as different people and that's socially accepted I think that's where you should look back and see what mistakes we made.
