If they can define it correctly (most can't), they usually can't put into words what they don't like about it other than that the idea of other people being treated equitably and respectfully makes them feel threatened , vulnerable, or marginalized. Which is absurd, but expecting these people to think beyond themselves is asking too much.

Note, not against it.

I think a huge part of it comes from the usage of "wokeness" as a political tool and the fact that companies made it a marketing strategy. What I hear mostly by people opposed to inclusion is that it is in everything, even if it's not relevant (in movies for example, there is a heavy emphasis on the fact that someone is gay even though it is supposed to be a John wick ish movie where no one should care about which hole except the bullet hole).

I think that it should be included in everything whenever it fits, que the "there is a time and place for everything" pokemon meme. I think we have that more and more these days too :)
