: Rishi Sunak Falls Victim to His Own ‘War on

The Party's huge defeats in the local elections reveal a party that is increasingly out of step with modern

The right likes to claim that the left is taken over by a “woke mind virus.” But they fail to look in the mirror at their own obsessive attacks on anything in our broader culture that they perceive as tinged with ”wokeness.”

Whether it’s corporations, movies, or beer, the right sees U.S. culture slipping away from them. This attack on “woke” is their sad attempt to cling to a world they feel should rightly be theirs.

But in so doing, often they can’t even agree on what is “woke” and what is “anti-woke.” Or what the terms even mean.

Today in , we try to understand conservatives’ growing infatuation with the term and how it developed from merely a word to a representation of the party's severe disconnect from reality. Read more here: https://thinkbigpicture.substack.com/p/right-wing-anti-woke-agenda

By accident of birth, I am a Boomer. I try to keep up with the world though and stay woke, but I probably am as blind about people’s struggles as any of us and I graduated from college without much student debt and a useless BFA in Drawing and Painting. I’ve always however been poor. Please be gentle with me when I’m blind to my privileges and kindly point them out to me. and proud

Wie ich das kommentieren soll, weiß ich auch nicht so genau.

Das rechte und rassistische Netzwerk Wissenschaftsfreiheit twittert: "Aktuelle Doku über Unwort-Debatten" und fügt einen Link zu einem Auszug aus "Das Leben des Brian" von Monthy Python hinzu.

Ist das Humor? Satire? Verarsche? Witz? Wissenschaftlicher Witz? Wissenschaftliche Satire?

BEING WOKE…

Being WOKE means respecting and defending civil, human, and animal rights.

Being WOKE means having compassion for the sick, the poor, the hungry, and the homeless.

Being WOKE means respecting, heeding, and teaching history.

Being WOKE means standing against racism, bigotry, misogyny, LGBTQIA-phobia, nationalism, nativism, and xenophobia.

Being WOKE means respecting truth, rejecting lies.

Being WOKE means NOT being an asshoIe, a sociopath, a Republican.

I have been reflecting on the many discussions of the word “woke” taking place here lately. I’ve noticed that I don’t use the word, at least not to refer to myself, for two reasons:

First, I don’t regard myself as particularly . Maybe the most woke thing about me is that I recognize I’ve got a long way to go in this regard.

Second, even though I aspire to wokeness, I don’t think it’s something I can judge about myself. It’s something for others to identify (or not) in my actions.

The predecessor to “woke” as a pejorative term was “politically correct,” and there were similar terms before that, going back as least as far as “abolitionist”. They’re all some form of “do-gooder,” which speaks volumes.
