Normal people have no idea what you’re talking about shut up already.

also, the word “woke” has always existed, it’s just that prior to the internet people usually said “bleeding heart.” literally saying “you’re empathetic with strangers? you stupid fuck.”

I never understood that term, it seemed to have been in circulation before my time.

4chan also has a similar term: moralf**

I think the right knows they’re the bad guys, but revel in it as a classic Villlain-with-good-publicity archtype like Lil Gideon for anyone here who watched Gravity Falls.

It’s anyone to the left of fucking Hitler in the eyes of these freaks. It’s the catch-all word and dogwhistle that “cultural marxism” used to be but it’s not got the problematic antisemitic trappings.

The exact opposite is true: Culture Wars deserve less attention than they’re getting.

Nothing comes close in terms of getting excessive attention.

How anyone could look around and say “The prescription is we all need to be more obsessed with this Culture War shite” is mystifying.

Seriously. “wokeism” wouldn’t bother conservatives anywhere near as much if their pundits would shut the fuck up about it for ten goddamn seconds.

That’s the way the modern media environment is.

What doesn’t happen: Conservatives read things by liberals and get outraged by it.

What does happen: Conservatives read things by other conservatives, telling them to be outraged by liberals.

Nothing is more important than being able to be a bigot without facing the consequences:melon-musk:

Antifada had a great point about this recently, the chud trade blue collar types actually do have full freedom of speech, they can say whatever racist homophobic sexust transphobic tripe they want and won’t face cancelation or really even any pushback. It’s the whiney chud email job people that think “wokeism” means anything, and they’re a tiny slice of the right wing voters but way overrepresnted in the bureaucracy/PMC in the thinktanks and orgs for right wing parties and shit. And they have enough money as a class to influence primaries.

I can’t say the N-word

You literally can, though. Twitter filters are off. Spam the N-word to your heart’s content.

The reason they stick to fighting and winning these easy culture wars is because they know if they didn’t fear even their “prey”, they might want revenge. It’s why “SJW bullshit” is overexaggerated. Think of it like a college student always making sure they do the easy homework assignments that award few points, but can make or break a grade.

Yes, the right outnumbers the left and outguns it. However, CHUDDery only really benefits white men, who are also heterosexual and christian.

  • White people make up 57.8% of the population and 70% of white people are Christian. White Christians make up 40.46% of the population.

  • Now we need to account for gender, what sort of SJW feminist would fight for both white MEN’s and white WOMEN’s interests? That leaves us with 20.23% of the population.

  • Yeah, there are millions of CHUDs that fall outside these demographics, enough to secure them the majority ideologically and culturally. But the far-right will dispose of them when they have outlived their usefulness. These so-called “patriots” want 79.77% of the population to be either dead or kept alive solely to serve the remaining 20.23% (or convert some of the non-religious white men at their most merciful). They may be morally reprehensible, but they’re neither weaklings nor fools.

They don’t “face consequences” even today, it’s about ensuring that no one, not even the weakest, harmless “wokescold” stands up to them without facing consequences. I’m white and many family members are CHUDs, I hide my power level and act like a CHUD, but I usually get a big lecture about the dangers of wokeness when I claim that “SJWs” are totally irrelevant and harmless so “we’re” wasting our time by fearing them. What are they going to do? Make us roll our eyes?

Careful what you wish for. They haven’t had a new bit in decades but they often have an insufferable new coat of paint for it.
