My take is that James Lindsey was raised a liberal and like Jordan Peterson has all the same kind of irrational prejudiced hatred for anything right-wing and conservative.
In other words, he feels the left and the right are both Evil incarnate, but that the left 'should' be the good guys and have just gone down the wrong path and been corrupted by Marxism whereas the right are and always will be the bad guys.
In reality there are good and bad to all sides so it doesn't mean anything to say left or right is bad in general, but to talk specifics. Like the left's pushing of trannies and censorship is bad, but their not wanting people to have to live under a bridge from medical debt is good (it could be argued). Lindsey uses "woke right" to avoid these specifics and protect his ingrained right=bad views.
