Whenever someone uses the word woke, you can immediately know they are unserious.
That's my main gripe with the article. The term is used by right leaning people exclusively so just its usage hints that the speaker has racist, homophobic or xenophobic views.
Some points are good, some are ok, and some are bad.
This part seems bad for me specifically.
Twitter, which was arguably the hub of wokeness, was bought by Elon Musk in order to neutralize it, and he seems to have succeeded — and not, incidentally, by censoring left-wing users the way Twitter used to censor right-wing ones, but without censoring either.

I had to stop when he said homophobia was coined specifically to be used for wokeness.

Nah, this guy is just mad he can't call people slurs.
