Appreciate the response. But I find it unconvincing. After all, the first article you’ve shared is from the perspective of a democrat. Sure, he’s critical towards his own party, and that’s good to see, but he’s still left-wing.

I liked your article pushing back against wokeism too. And I have seen some pushback against woke narrative on Medium more recently.

The point is: where are the pro-Trump writers on Medium? Where are the writers with anti-woke views similar to Jordan Peterson, Brett Weinstein and Sam Harris? Where is the headline on the front page of medium saying “Wokeism is silly" or, “Women, you live in the least oppressive society in human history" or “5 things Trump did well while in office". And would the authors of pieces titled this way every get curated or posted in a major publication?

Sometimes the online bubbles you’re in are so pervasive that they become difficult to recgonise. After all, does a fish know its wet?

As for myself, I’m in my own filter bubble, like everyone. I’m inside a right-leaning filter bubble on Youtube — videos critical of left-wing views are frequently recommended for me. While on Medium, I’m exposed to an onslaught of articles following the same woke narrative, with some occasional pushback from writers such as yourself.
