A lot of woke culture is really increasingly only a public face for the vast majority of people. Privately, almost everyone lets their hair down and has opinions that would never pass muster if they were being offered up to the Twitter hordes. Many of the people who are perfectly comfortable mouthing all the right words on social media know that it's all a public performance.
As people start to fall away from the orthodoxy they can more easily see that it's performative, and know that everyone who's saying the "good" things is only saying it to stay on the right side of being dogpiled.
I've recently started to see a lot more people being willing to just say "ok, whatever, this shit is silly" and walk away. The woke side can't stand up to any questioning and think a full-scale shit-throwing circle will impress people, not realizing it only impresses other shit-throwers.
You know what I like about conservatives, as someone who generally positions on the left? When I talk to conservatives about why their opinions seem wrong to me, they've often thought about my point of view and have reasons to oppose it, which they will make clear during that discussion. Try to talk to a woke left person about why they believe what they believe, and you will look fear in the face. They cover it up with anger so you don't see it, but they're terrified at the prospect of having to explain their beliefs to anyone. They know that they don't come by them honestly, and that if they had to articulate them, they'd probably fall afoul of cancel culture.
