re: US wokeness v rest of the world

I don’t think he came here to shite on the U.S at all, but there are plenty of things to shite on at current. He just asked have we recently visited any places outside the U.S where the woke bs wasn’t noticeable.

He’s actually questioning if other places in the world are currently as woke as the U.S.

To answer, I have not, but my mom went on a South America trip and she said “none of that bullshite was there, and it was glorious”

The woke bs is really bad in our country right now & it’s sad you’ve got to go out of the country to get away from it.

I just arrived in the U.A.E.. I’ll keep a lookout for wokeness and report back to you.

No idea what you’re talking about. I’m talking about conservatives who think modern some ideology is the creation of somewhere else (usually those damn Euro socialists) - a prevalent belief

If you are actually curious about the origins of American 'woke-ism' listen to this:

The New Discourses Podcast with James Lindsay, Episode 56

The ideology that is most conveniently identified as "Wokeness" is much more accurately described by the phrase Identity Marxism. That is, Wokeness is a Marxian approach to identity politics for similar aims to those Marxism has always touted. In this regard, Critical Race Theory is Race Marxism; Critical Gender Theory is Gender Marxism; Queer Theory is Gender, Sex, and Sexuality Marxism; Fat Studies is Fat Marxism; Postcolonial Theory is Postcolonial Marxism; and Disability Studies is Disability Marxism. All together, working intersectionally, they are one new species of Marxism: Identity Marxism. In this episode of the New Discourses Podcast, James Lindsay walks the listener through a history of the various strains of Marxist thought to make the case that Wokeness is best thought of this way. Indeed, it must be understood this way. In so doing, he elucidates what Marxism really represents as a broad, overarching philosophy (or, religion) and indicates that the various species of Marxism, including vulgar, Cultural, neo-, and now Identity Marxism, are all essentially the same project in different guises. Join him for a penetrating discussion that frames Wokeness as it really is.

You have been conditioned beautifully, like a virtual tranny (no balls).

I wish I could virtue signal like you, so stunning and brave to not care as the country is run into the ground.

I trust if you are white you will volunteer your kids to pass up their dream careers for the sake of DEI. I hope they have to do it.

Humans need drama. We need some type of stress. When we have none, it gets manufactured. And when that happens, all the people missing it but nothing realizing they need it will flock like a moth to a flame.


People in other countries don’t have that need because they have legit 3rd world problems

Where do you live? I have no problems where I live.

This. USA is the greatest country in the world. We have our faults. But just try to get decent health care or education or even consistent electricity in some of these “non-woke” countries.
