They don't see it as hypocrisy because they mistake race/gender for class status. It is essentially "reverse racism" and they have to "punch up" against racism. It's okay to cancel a white guy because he's their version of a "bourgeois" while people of color are their version of a "proletariat."

I don't agree with this assessment by the way. It's just how these people think. To me, it feels like playing musical chairs within a fundamentally broken society and economic system that disregards social justice for profit.
