“…these particular sayings tend to communicate perspectives that are in favor of “small-D” democratic values like free speech, epistemic humility, and intellectual pluralism…”

More accurately, they are in favour of “small-L” libertarian/classical liberal values. Democracy, whether real or the normal oligarchic pretence, is a danger to them.

Also, “It’s not my cup of tea.” Wokies take offense when a person indicates lgbtq, political activism, collectivism, racial grievance, “social justice,” etc. just “aren’t my thing.” Seriously, some of us enjoy simple conversations about music, movies or baseball. Call us old fashioned.
