The left in many countries has shifted away from focusing on tangible, material reasons for oppressive outcomes. For instance, the linguistic wars about how to talk about BLM etc. have some worth, but any real change in the status of Black Americans requires moving resources to the areas where they live so that the schools become better, so that health care is available, and so that jobs can be obtained. Doing that would help so much more than Twitter activism, in my opinion.

And a similar shift away from understanding women's condition as based on the female body, how it is viewed and treated etc. means that now what goes for much of online feminism is silly language policing and more focus on everyone else's problems than those of female people. The mainstream news actually cover more real feminist topics now than feminist websites, including reporting on female unemployment during the pandemic, earnings differences, labor market discrimination and so on. Most feminist websites have been taken over by the queer theory folks and of course they don't see anything as material..
