The article made it pretty clear that the writer thinks there is a gigantic difference between the left (liberals) and the neo-marxists (woke). In fact, that is what the article is completely about.

I don't have to agree with the author's definitions or categorizations. There are economic leftists and cultural leftists. Many people are both. But even among people who are both some of those people tend towards authoritarian/anti-debate mindsets and others tend towards strong belief in freedom of speech. I'd say older leftists (over 40) tend largely to be pro-free speech and able to debate, much more than people who might identify as "liberal" and "woke."
