Notes -
I recall Pete Buttigieg getting disparaged by the left for using the term "virtue signalling". The left might admit that such a phenomenon exists (I think maybe "performative activism" is the approved phrase this year?) but using right-coded vocabulary for it was taken as evidence that he'd been talking to the other side too much to be a safe candidate.
More broadly, "woke" appears to have been ceded to the right, with the euphemism treadmill there cranked up so fast that no replacement seems to be forthcoming.
