If the group of individuals who fortified the election had sufficient influence to "keep their people out of the streets," or whatever the quote was, I wouldn't be surprised if they were doing the same now. A lot of these spontaneous and mostly peaceful protests seem astroturfed. And if they are grassroots, they have sufficient organizational ability to restrain their mobs.
I can't think of another reason why the machine would be quiet right now. One of their sacred cows just got butchered and grilled. You'd think they'd be louder.
It's an election year, and this isn't an issue the orcs particularly care about (despite them having abortions more prolifically than anyone else).
Mass rioting creates a lot of (local) demand for repression, even in relatively blue areas. I'm not sure they can hold that back if white people are the face of it.
Large scale rioting always has the potential to turn into inter-communal violence. You can only roll the dice so many times before coming up 'snake-eyes'. This one of the reasons they prefer low-intensity conflict.
There could be any number of reasons. Most likely they are conserving energy and resources. Maintaining the momentum of serious organised violence is difficult. Also, they have to prioritise: the elections would be more important and they may well be planning for something big later in 2022 or in 2024.
