Excellent. Woke or whatever name it has is inherently authoritarian. Not the soft, cuddly #BeKind movement it claims to be, and many seem to think it is. The battle for truth and freedom goes on.
Without a coherent countervailing social / economic / political movement against this modern “wokey” Marxism it will continue to pervade all aspects of Western nations. And unfortunately “Trumpism” lacks coherence, breadth and depth and will likely fade away after 2028, with a serious risk of leaving the reins of power to the hands of the Marxists.
It's an authoritarian movement in disguise. We think we're too sophisticated for autos-da-fe but more fool us, humanity has a dark streak that comes disguised as an angel of light.
Profound insight. Delivered with a shoulder to the wheel resolve and forthright clarity. For any reader finding synergy in the message, share it with anyone espousing the war is won.
The stuff about extricating woke from all the bureaucracy is critical. It will take decades and will have mutated into sth unrecognisable by then anyway.
Woke is sustained by 4 key factors: legislation (the Blair reforms such as the HRA and the Equality Act), power dynamics and incentives (elite theory and public choice incentives that fuel DEI, ESG and managerialism), ideas such as the critical theories and Eric Kaufmann’s account of liberal taboos morphing into cultural socialism, and sociological and psychological impulses, such as moral imperatives and mind pathogens).
Therefore, there needs to be a multi pronged resistance to these factors. Starting with a repeal of Blair’s reform (a great restoration), but also including performance criteria in the civil service, defunding of charities and universities that are overtly political, holding individuals to account for pushing ideology that has led to excessive compensation claims (e.g., the Tavistock scandal will produce 1000s of cases, the civil service and NHS have had to pay out millions in costs and compensation to gender critical staff).
A woman in Australia called Kirralie Smith has just been fined $95,000 for saying men cannot be women. If she doesn’t pay within 28 days, the fine will double. She must also issue an apology.
The woke brigade of trans loons, climate cretins, race retards are like a cockroach infestation. No matter how scrupulous you are, they keep returning. Shine the light of reason and common sense and they scuttle away, only to return...the odd one here, the odd one there.
“The collapse of the Soviet Union should have made Marxist ideas irreversibly toxic…” Once again the equating of Marxism with Stalinism. Is this because of ignorance or bad faith, or a mixture of both? Any “sensible, educated person” can investigate this for themselves.
Marxism remains relevant simply because it describes the origins, inevitable contradictions and historical destiny of the capitalist system. It has no relation at all to “critical theory.” Indeed, genuine Marxists were among the earliest and strongest critics of identity politics and wokism.

Be kind... or else. Most people don't consider the second part.
💯

Unfortunately, I think you're right.
I agree that Trump is a one off and there is no movement beyond him precisely because there is no underlying philosophy.
🤣 asking nicely? I think not. The bullying and aggression was the main component. "Say and think what we tell you or else."
Im not sure you're being serious.
Good luck with that
And thank you for your honesty

Wokeness is alive and thriving.

What needs to dissolve forever is wokeism's source, a man's world. It continues to exist at the expense of people and planet.
