Why do some people think Atlus and Persona are going woke?

This may sound like I'm making things up or rage baiting especially if you've seen how many (obviously not all) fans act online. But yeah there are noticeable amount of chuds in the fandom that think Atlus is sanitizing Persona to appease the west and how Atlus has gone woke they were also calling metaphor woke because something about tolerance?

Mind you this is a series that hasn't had a female protagonist since P3P and only once before in Persona 2 Eternal Punishment has arguably went backwards with same sex depictions going from romanceables in P2 and P3P to whatever the fuck P5 is. There is a noticeable amount of people that are actually tone deaf about this and arbitrary "so gay" based on arbitrary aesthetic grounds like they did with Akechi "omg how can you be a homophobic persona fan P5 is soooo gay look at akechi"

Although it is had to deny that some things are seemingly being toned down but I don't think this makes Atlus woke. To be tinfoiled hat for a moment I think ATLUS is trying play both sides they won't be as derogatory and as mocking as previous titles but they also won't add things like a female MC or same sex romance options as that will make the chuds upset and also I'm pretty sure they don't internally because... reasons.
