Woke is like Political Correctness on steroids. Like PC, some is good -- like being polite; not using racial slurs. But too much drives us crazy.
Don’t go crazy. From what I’ve seen about Woke, this is some of the crazy:
Anti-West: toppling statues. Decolonising. Cancelling Dead White Men. Hyping the gender debate (LGBTQ issues). You must use my pronouns, you must call me whatever I happen to identify as. Critical Race Theory = cultural marxism.
Anti-merit: Affirmative action. Appointment based on race: KJ-P, KBJ, KDH (aka Kamala), etc. SAT score differences by race. Oscars diversity rules.
Anti science. Jerry Coyne. Indigenous “ways of knowledge” (First Nations, Māori, Aborigines). These should be taught in social studies not “science”. There is only one “science”, not “native science” or “justice science”.
Woke is like water: Not enough will kill you. Too much will kill you.
