Woke is a Joke

One of the more illogical manifestations of culturalMarxism in the form of political correctness is the concept of “wokeness.” In simple terms it refers to a subset of people, typically from entitled, privileged middle and upper middle-class backgrounds who maintain the posture of having all the “right” or “correct” views and beliefs regarding all issues of identity politics. The woke are new age puritanical identarians who cannot and will not accept that there exist others that disagree with them or have differing views than them. They practice this vicious form of political correctness to demand and defend group think based on immutable characteristics including but not limited to race, sex, gender and ethnicity – all being more important than the individual.

On the basic level, woke is pure folly. It covers supporting the belief that Tampons should be placed in men’s restrooms to believing that men can get pregnant. If you do not ascribe to such lunacy you are instantly a fascist, homophobe, sexist transgenderphobe that supports the white supremacy patriarchy sciences of biology, anatomy and physiology. If you are woke, you can’t eat meat, or if you do, it has to be free range, no antibiotic gently killed meat. Thus, bacon eating carnivores can never be woke. A perfect example of being woke is having white guilt such to the point you adopt two black babies and raise the 7-year-old black boy as a transgender girl – see Charlize Theron. Woke is a synonym for upside down, for facts and science is not as important as a person’s collective group feelings.

If one is to be honest and historically accurate, woke culture is the antithesis of the civil rights movement and its desire for equality of opportunity for all as equals based on the content of our character. Woke cats do not see it this way - they are a group, a race, a sexual orientation before an individual. They are actively seeking to undermine the civil rights progress of the past that ended segregation and discrimination due to race to treat all people the same for example in exchange to isolate and separate today because they want to feel that the world (especially America) is more racist today than in the 1950s and 1960s. For them, group affiliation and identity are more significant than what you think as an individual. In other words, your skin color and who you like to have sex with is more valuable than one’s character and uniqueness. Consequently, putting the group first means that one must speak or think the way the group desires or risk being attacked and punished.

To be accurate, woke social justice warriors are not the sharpest knives in the drawer, just try having a conversation or discussion with them. Regardless if it is abortion, biology as being the singular determinant of gender or what bathrooms a person should use, instead of citing evidence and defending or validating their position, they merely yell slurs: bigot, racist, fascist, alt-right, sexist, trandgenderphobe and Islamphobe are some of the most common. This is the easiest way for them to abstain from engaging in defending their positions.

If these do not work, their ‘they know better than anyone else’ snobbery comes out. This is one method employed that allows them to justify looking down on individuals with views different from theirs while at the same time allowing them to play the victim. Look at the period after President Trump came to office.  They to this day describe Trump voters and supporters in condescending terms such as deplorable, dumb people too stupid to understand politics or know what they are voting for because they live in fly-over country and are uneducated (or at least not as educated as me). This is a core characteristic of the self-proclaimed woke because it provides them with a synthetic justification to look down upon and lecture the masses. More importantly, it artificially rationalizes their authoritarian and entitled belief that they are right on and about all things and that by default this corroborates their intolerance of people that have differing views and positions (if you disagree you must be silenced).

In the woke realm of the universe, men can only write on and talk about male issues, blacks can only write in black spaces, gays cannot paint images of heterosexual sex acts and whites cannot have dreadlocks.  This is cultural appropriation in the new vernacular but by the same definition, it is reminiscent of cultural purity we saw when Asians could not own land, interrace marriage was prohibited and blacks and whites had separate water fountains and schools.  This woke behavior ironically is anti Brown V. Board of Education and Loving v. Virginia and pro Dred Scottv. Stanford, and Plessy v. Ferguson. It is as if woke people are completely thoughtless and lack real world interaction to the point that they do not understand what they are doing, or that they intentionally want to roll back the hand of time and undo all the gains approaching equality we have had as a nation over the past decades.

The US is possibly in for a bleak future if people are so afraid that they inhibit reasonable discussion because one party is so isolated in being holier than though in bubble-wrapped urban elite enclaves that they cannot engage others with ideas, that there only course of action is to repeat bland Borg-like slogans reminiscent of Mussolini’s Italy and brained-washed followers of Jim Jones. This is the least common dominator of being woke for the progressive elite and over-educated fake oppressed modern left. When all is reduced to a battle between privilege and victimhood, eventually everyone becomes a victim and merit and hard work becomes obsolete. Being woke is not only irrational and untenable, it will just result in an adult population incapable of dealing with reality and preferring to live in a world of perpetual make-believe that asserts one has a right not to be offended or encounter thoughts they dislike.
