So-called progressives and radicals in May 2020: Let’s bully people into deadly lockdowns while rioting and looting as a form of#woke “social justice.”
So-called progressives and radicals in May 2021: Let’s bully people into getting an experimental vaccine while attacking random Jewish people on the street as a form of #woke “social justice.”
Welcome to WokeWorld… where none of the above is considered to be violence. (That designation is reserved for barbarous practices like uttering the word “woman.”) You would think that — given the events of the past 5-6 years — the left would be having a remarkably easy time creating a safe landing spot for anyone sickened by Trump’s antics. On the contrary, the #woke crowd has created its own repellent counter-cult. To belong to either hive mind, you must diligently repeat the deceptive mantras proscribed by your algorithmic news feeds. Dissent = cancellation.
If it looks like a cult and feels like a cult...
Suggestion: If it’s justice and integrity you seek, stay far, far away from either pole of current American ideology. Instead — regardless of where you currently stand on any of the issues of the day — embrace the subversive adventures of nuance and context.
