Woke continues because its privileged creators believe “What I create for others, certainly will not apply to me.”
America has been in a veritable cultural revolution since the 1960s. Nearly all our major institutions finally became woke—the administrative state, traditional and social media, universities, K-12, the corporate boardroom, entertainment, professional sports, and the foundations.
So the Obama and the Biden administrations finally seemed to have achieved their aims, in what the Obamas once boasted would be the “fundamental transformation” of America into something unrecognizable by its Founders. But what they gave us was nihilism—the destruction of norms, laws, and customs. There is no border, no criminal justice system, no real president any more.
The citizen is a serf, the illegal alien the veritable citizen. The former needs a passport to reenter the country, the latter is waved on through. There is a slob in gym shorts and a hoodie establishing dress codes for the Senate, teen murderers bragging that they won’t spend a day in jail, and a would-be state legislator filming herself doing sexual gymnastics while begging for cash only to be upset over the invasion of her “privacy.” So the Left got what it wanted and gave us our new America.
The curious result, however, is that even the elite Left is now forced to live among, and cannot always escape, the ruination it created—and for the first time is becoming slightly unhappy with what it birthed.
Critical legal theory has now trickled down into most of our large cities. It insists that criminals are not criminals at all, but rather victims of prior racial and class oppressions. Thus their victims should blame society for their injuries, not their predatory victimizers. Critical legal theory is a sort of Marxist redistribution schema—the middle class almost deserves its equal share...

The 0bamas, Bidens, Clintons and all the other leftist “elitists” deserve their fair share of the crime.
VDH ping
The left can and will never be happy. They’re the most miserable, wretched people on the planet. Nothing is ever good enough for them.
As usual VDH is quite good at identifying problems. Sure would be nice if he had a solution or two to toss out there.

The Left is NEVER HAPPY. Their hate consumes them. They serve the wrong master and in the end that is fatal.
Breath the wrath of God on all RINOs.
The cultural revolution will not peacefully stop until election fraud is fixed. Moreover, assuming Trump overcomes ballot box stuffing, the deep state bureaucracy and subsequent lawless rioting mobs must be crushed.
yep
they can only yield destruction
“But what they gave us was nihilism — the destruction of norms, laws, and customs.”
According to Oxford, “nihilism” is “the rejection of all religious and moral principles, in the belief that life is meaningless”.
Is sad. But yes that is how it is.
The worse the Left makes things, the more they try to fix it by making it even worse.
Wait for it 3...2...1...IT’S TRUMP’S FAULT!
The left NEVER seems to look ahead to see the consequences of their actions.
The left truly believes they are never wrong. If there was a practical, peaceful way to solve the problems they would be ignored or blocked.
The Left is never happy. They are the most miserable people on earth, intent on forcing their misery and self-loathing onto everyone else.
Of course they’re happy.
The solution is often in the identification of the problem. Most people are just too paralyzed to act upon info presented in such a way. One item is the lawlessness brought about by non-application of laws/statutes. Very simply put, people need to insist that laws are upheld, crimes are punished as intended and that DAs are held to account as well as the rest of the prosecutorial system/justice system.
It drives me bonkers when people say “don’t bring me problems, bring me solutions”. One needs to identify the true problem in order to address it or come up with a solution.
It is usually in the implementation of the solution where things go awry. That’s what people really want to know - “how do we implement the solution?”
Again, in the case above we can go back to what was working (at least working a lot better than what we are doing now) if we have the will.
