He's never been anti-woke all the time.
2022 or so all he could talk about was internet moderation, free speech on campuses, and race/gender statistics.
He is very explicitly anti-woke and this is stated directly in many articles.

Wrong.

He is quasi anti-woke to the extent "wokeism" becomes a self-defeating problem. He isn't "anti-woke all the time".
If you want to talk about him being explicit, then take stock of what is explicitly said.

Here is one of many examples. He talks all the time about how he hates wokeness and woke people. You can still vote democrat and be anti-woke in a way that's annoying to read.

Lol you realize I have eyes right? Did you even read this?
"For me, seeing actual injustices against minorities makes me more woke, and seeing woke people be stupid and unnecessarily combative makes me less woke." -- yeah, really oozes hate.
It's clear what this is: you find any hint of criticism for this pet issue heretical.
Read any other paragraph lol. Or any time "cancel culture" comes up in this or any of dozens of articles it was mentioned in. It was annoying.
