Hah. Yout think this is about “liberals”? I encourage you to read the article in full. It’s got a very good point, and it’s not just about “liberals”.

It’s a lesson the Extremely Online Left still hasn’t fully learned, failing where its political enemies succeed. Reactionary right-wing groups like the homophobic and transphobic Moms for Liberty—which seeks to ban books from LGBTQ and BIPOC authors under the guise of “parental rights”—have claimed political victories by seizing power one public school board and small town at a time. Other reactionaries have similarly managed to take their pet grievances about diversity and wokeness to the national level by moving from online outrage to on-the-ground community organizing.

I actively try to decouple from the US left-of-center discourse these days (another point made in the piece), but even I have stumbled upon plenty of alleged hardcore leftists posting dejectedly at the void, deflecting their inaction by yelling at me that “I don’t know what it’s like”, the way an angsty teenager would and EXTREMELY not doing anything tangible. You’re doing it right now.
