This isn’t new. Although I didn’t have the intellectual tools at the time to propwrly define the phenomena at the time, in high school in the 60s I realized that no amount of facts and logic served to dent the self righteous assurance of my liberal friends. Words didn’t even mean the same things to them and me, and their definitions kept changing. I was in college before I found the concept of a “world view. After that I gradually came to the realization that discussions with them are useless. I still try it from time to time, but I expect nothing from it. I just hope that one or two might have a spark strike in the dry brush of the desert that is their mind.

If you read te article at the original link, he says that those "woken" are not "liberal" in minset. They merely occupy the seat of a liberal without subscribing to that view. We all need to get that point. They are not liberal. And we shouldn't refer to them as such.
