Walking the Woke, or Just Talking the Talk
American Thinker ^ | 12 Mae, 2021 | Brian C. Joondeph

Leading media organizations trip over themselves to be diverse, tolerant, and inclusive. How are they doing in these departments?

Hypocrisy is a tenet of modern liberalism. Those that talk the talk rarely walk the walk, or in the case of leftism, “walk the woke.” Regardless of the issue, the left says one thing and does another.

Examples include environmentalism, where climate warriors fly across the globe in high carbon footprint private jets to commune with fellow environmentalists or to accept awards for their words, rather than their deeds.

Faithful Catholics like Joe Biden or Nancy Pelosi have no problem with full term abortion or same sex marriage. Those preaching the loudest about COVID face coverings ditch their own masks when they think no one is looking, like Dr Fauci at a baseball game or President Biden when he forgets where he is.

Racial justice warriors raise the alarms about white privilege, institutional racism, oppression, intersectionality, and many other terms de jour. How do those screaming the loudest fare when the judgement lens in focused in their direction rather than on those they criticize?

Leading media organizations trip over themselves to be diverse, tolerant, and inclusive. How are they doing in these departments?

For purposes of a baseline, the demographic composition of the United States is 60 percent white, 13 percent black, 19 percent Hispanic and 6 percent Asian, per the US Census Bureau.

The New York Times, whose new motto is “all the woke that’s fit to print”, ousted a reporter who had been at the newspaper for 45 years over using a verboten racial slur “in a conversation about racist language.” Woe to the teacher who reads the wrong passage of Mark Twain’s “Adventures of Huckleberry Finn” out loud to his or her class.

Some of the most intolerant, bigoted and hateful people I know professionally and from past interactions post these signs on their property.

Inability to admit error or failure.

(Liberal used to mean differently than today, btw. Like gay, tweet and cloud.)

The thing about people in authority, is it’s ‘do as I say not as I do’. They are using this new level of authority to implement their agenda as well as engage their own usurious benefits, such as the mayor of a town visiting a local beach that is closed to the public, or a guvner eating at a closed restaurant. It is straightforward fascism/NAZIism.
