They are if you use their metrics but, unfortunately for them, their metrics don’t stand up to real-world scrutiny.
Defeating Wokeism isn’t merely a political, legal, or even cultural battle. We must also address what ultimately fuels Wokeness on a personal level: a delusional sense of moral superiority because it’s that moral superiority that is the vehicle for the left’s real power grab.
Are the Woke, in fact, morally superior? If you ask them, they certainly are. Their thinking seems to run something like this:
The world consists of people with different skin colors, genders, sexual orientations, etc. We are tolerant. The un-Woke aren’t. Therefore, we are morally superior.
This worldview is seductive. The basic idea is “I’m a good person, and you’re not.” Moral superiority is an addictive drug. But every claim in the above argument is off.
Take the concept that “The world consists of people with many different skin colors, genders, sexual orientations, and so on.” That seems true enough at first look. Yet the error lies in its implicit assumptions and in how it’s used. It implies that humanity’s most essential and important qualities can be reduced to these traits: skin color, gender, and sexual orientation.
The mistake is in the reductionism. This approach reduces the entire moral universe down to very few minor qualities while pretending to cover the entire picture. But skin color, gender, and so on are superficial traits. Everyone agrees on this. (It’s the whole point, really.) These aren’t good ways to measure beings. Yet reducing human beings down to superficial traits—and mandating that the entire world must be rearranged according to these traits—is a central premise of Wokeism. The error lies in the act of reduction. There’s more to human beings than all this.

The wokeists are usually the worst of society, intent on finding any reason to punish others.
On Judgment Day, they will have to answer for why they worshipped the creation instead of the Creator.
The woke will soon have their own slums
Are social justice warriors morally superior?
Are the self-righteous morally superior?
Give me a break.
They commit the Gnostic fallacy of believing that there iss a moral ordering of humanity, and that they are “more evolved”.
Wokesters are losers, degenerates, and disgusting people who need something to give their lives meaning. They have accomplished nothing in their life and becoming a wokester gives them an instant sense of accomplishment and superiority even though they have done nothing and accomplished nothing in their pathetic lives.
The belief that race -- instead of values -- determines behavior, is the basic tenet of naziism.
Hell no! These people are moral midgets. They are the most immoral people on the planet--and that includes the mafia, the drug pushers, pedophiles, nazis, et al.
No, they are Immorally Superior.
The ‘woke’ are not only far from being ‘morally superior’ they are outright dangerous.
Woke = Uncaged Maniac
“Woke” isn’t a set of ‘causes’ to be reconciled for the good of humanity ... it’s a set of ‘tactics’ to be utilized for the achievement of ultimate tyranny over We The People
this woke stuff comes directly out of satan’s playbook
This is actually a great point. In times past, a large number of wokesters would be in mental institutions. Now they are running wild on the streets disturbing the peace and stirring up riots.
“Are the Woke Morally Superior?”
Of course they are.
Just ask them.
From my personal acquaintances and relationships, it seems to be universal that the “woke”/leftists see themselves as both morally and intellectually superior and feel that they should be making all of the decisions for the rest of us.
No...They are cognitively inferior. They are not guided by reason; they think with their emotions. Now, this applies to the millions of Rat/Rino voters. This does not apply to lefty leadership that plays the emotional masses like Stradivari.
Of course they are, just ask them.
Nothing biblical about wokism.
