Padraigs earlier point about critiquing neoliberalism is a damned fine line, and it will continue to get finer.
tbc I said liberal cultural hegemony, not neoliberalism which is irredeemable
I think it's good to critique and challenge any kind of hegemony, even one whose values I largely - not entirely - agree with
I do think you and especially gus make that liberal (or woke or whatever you want to call it) cultural hegemony out to be much more hegemonic than it actually is
i.e. when gus says - well he deleted it but when he was talking about hostile workplaces, my immediate obvious response is "oh, you mean like women, minorities and queer people - anyone outside white, male, heteronormativity - have
always experienced?"
this country still has a massive wealth gap, trans etc people still experience violence and suicide at enormous rates, etc etc
put against those stark realities, it's hard to get too worked up over complaints about the liberal media and wrongthink being castigated at politically correct workplaces
having said that, again, those complaints aren't a priori invalid
and it's not like the "left" is infallible
for example here's a pretty good video by one of more astute, self-aware, cultural studies (I think his actual background is linguistics) online left types I know of critiquing one of the modern left's common failings in the culture war
