Square, if you don’t want to wade through that extraordinarily long response found in that link, I think Modern Orthodoxy is more than the fact someone works or goes to college. Best to illustrate by some example, among the modern orthodox there is a more liberal view of the role of women in halachah, in terms of their involvement. You might find among them women’s minyan or women in leadership positions. In addition, some modern orthodox women may be more relaxed regarding tznius in terms of dress and hair covering. As far as men go, modern orthodox may be more relaxed in terms of dress when it comes to dress for davening (shorts, no hats). In general, MO tend to be more maikil in halachic issues
