there used to be other terms relating to specific things. reverse racism and white genocide, cultural marxism, LGBTQ propaganda, gender ideology, removed. but then the right decided to adopt intersectionality and decided to be bigoted against all minorities at the same time. this has the added benefit of not "excluding" someone if they belong to only one of the categories they hate while spreading hate against everyone they deem undesirable.
their first attempt was SJW which worked great in 2016-2017 era but 1. it's an unwieldy three letter acronym 2. it sounds like jew. also the breadtube popularity in the subsequent years helped killing off the phrase. after breadtube creators either fell off or decided to only make artsy fartsy videos once a year they clapped back with woke and DEI.
one other thing woke and DEI have going for them is that they tie to this false notion of meritocracy which is unfortunately broadly popular. on the other hand SJW is relating to a specific stereotype of "blue haired feminist raging in tumblr" which most people really don't care about.
