I have also been noticing this. I have had someone other than me bring up the absurdity of CRT in real life. I have seen far more based comments on "safe" platforms like YT. when I make what I think is a rather unsafe based comment on YT it can get over 10 likes. This is very different from the past while where the common response was nothing, or immediate sjw type Reeee replies Co-workers that used to be all about masks and lockdown stuff now openly seem to not care about mask stuff as soon as they are out of view of customers and don't even talk about being worried about covid in any regard. They are just following rules to keep their job. It's painfully slow progress, but welcome for sure.
