I mean I'd bet good money it's a talking point right now somewhere. It's not particularly hard to notice if you're willing to interrogate secularism for flaws. Turns out taking away religious identity just replaces it with other identities that aren't necessarily more pleasant.

    Nationalism is probably the big one. This is less obvious in the West where the transition is more or less complete (even religious people in the West tend to be nationalist first and religious second), but in (my corner of) the third world people pushing for secularism tend to basically simultaneously push for nationalism and vice versa.
