Who's "we" in this case? Not everyone is on board with the new left who condemn at whim well meaning people who don't follow the temperamental and shallow whims of "wokeness." Free speech and thought are oppressed and people who don't follow the line have their names plastered online and their jobs taken away. Taking offense has somehow become a form of coherent argument. Social media has become a tool to foremost ridicule and destroy people's reputation.
Not everyone on the "left" is on board with this. There's still a large number of us who respect reason, intelligence, civil discourse, liberty. We just don't appear to have a candidate who represents us, or a late night talk show that represents us, because our stances are not principally rooted as being in opposition to other entities. There are a few journalists and voices that still speak and write foremost with respect to reason and in accordance to reality, but the current social and political climate is so inflammatory that this becomes difficult.
People like us exist, our existence is just not expressed majorly in media or social media.
