Wokeism Is a Cruel and Dangerous Cult

...few have described wokeism as the cruel creed that it is.

Wokeism’s natural logic is to destroy the lives of people of both genders, of all races, and—if need be—those of every age, all to leverage an otherwise unworkable ideological agenda.

The whole “wokeism” universe is but another cover for an authoritarian belief system, resorting to the old “elite versus common people” social order. This has been very nearly the normal state for ALL humanity since the social organization rose above the tribal level, and only occasionally has anything like a stable representation of everybody at all levels been tried. Even when this form manages to succeed, there are constant efforts to dismantle and destroy the experiment, reverting to the command-and-control structure. Freedom is a fleeting thing, and never free. Constant vigilance and nurture are its price.

It’s all a scam to bring in communism, because “it’ll work this time.”
