Joe is right about a lot of what he said in that long message. There is so much virtue signalling now, and people who feel like the good guys getting a rush out of hating on people they think are beneath them, not realizing they are acting worse than the people they hate.

And no, the "same people" who oppose the over-doing of social justice are not all people against health care, worker's rights, etc. I am all for universal health care, socialized structures, better benefits for all people etc, but against being internet bullies in the name of justice.

People who want trans people in commercials or even the corpos who put them there are not worse than the people trying to force detransition on people, ban them from receiving healthcare, and erase them from public life. That's a completely false equivalence.

I didn't say that each and every person who is anti-woke is internally opposed to all those good things. What I said was that the people who are focused on that are not focused on that stuff and much more driven by being anti-woke than being in support of more worker power and healthcare. There's a pretty popular group of millions of those people, they're called Republicans.

There's no one who focuses on being anti-woke who actually does anything to further those goals. The people doing it are universally considered woke, and the chief attack on them is that they're woke.

For example, I've seen you post political stuff semi-regularly. It's never been about wanting socialized healthcare or higher wages or worker power. It's pretty much always some anti-woke or anti culturally left thing.
