re: US wokeness v rest of the world

So much truth here. I’d guess 95% of US residents have no idea how the world operates. I spent 4 years International.

the USA exported the racial politics/wokeness after the “summer of love”.

That originated here, and like a virus, it spread.

No, it didn't. This poster is correct.

Cultural Marxism originated with the Frankfurt school.
We're a few generations in now. Did NOT originate in America.

This version of hyper-identity Marxism 100% originated in this country

If you want to trace it back to Derrida or Marcuse or further be my guest, but wokeness by any meaningful measure originated here, as did the term "woke" (in a political advocacy context at least).

Ignorant morons who are doing their best to pretend marxism isn't being celebrated in this country, even though they really k now it is. They'd rather say, "that's not happening, y'all are overreacting" or "it's not really happening all over", meanwhile the slippery slope of progressivism is causing everyone's paychecks to shrink, and performance/output of general business in this country continues to slip because of marxist diversity hires.

These were the same people that think JFK was a great Democrat President, but if presented the policies of JFK, they would find that JFK is too conservative.

These people would align more closely to Krushchev than Kennedy.

Went to Greece a few years ago. One of our tour guides had a drink afterwards with us.

He explained that men of all ages in Greece spend way too much time sitting at cafes and bars arguing about politics and falling for the next populist leader. Laziness, and obsession with empty leaders who promise to solve all the country’s problems. It’s an endless cycle of recession to the point it’s just the norm now.

Sound familiar to anyone?

Its affluenza.

Americans, even poor ones pursue idle entertainment over anything of substance.

The less you have to legitimately complain about, the more ridiculous policy becomes. Progressivism has no end game, its the constant tinkering to reach a genderless, raceless mass of humanity with no variance of thought.

please point me something akin to nearly all of the institutions of one of the most developed countries in the world promoting (especially to children):

quote:

The idea that your race is actually your most defining characteristic and nearly everything bad that can happen to you is attributable to your race. Moreover, if you're of the majority race, you're inherently problematic simply through your existence. - The idea you gender is malleable and severe mental illness should be not only embraced but celebrated. We'll cheer your transition right up to your eventual suicide.

Holy hyperbolic scare tactics, Batman.

The, literal, only talking point in there that is widely talked about/promoted is that gender is malleable.

But it sure makes it easy to feel objectively on the right side of things when you exaggerate the other sides positions and extrapolate the most extreme viewpoints from .001% to be representative of the whole!

I don’t agree with a lot of the stuff that you don’t agree with. But people like you don’t make anything better when you argue against it from this ridiculous vantage point. It makes you lose any credibility to whoever you’re speaking with unless they already are fully on your side and want to hear it.

You’re the conservative version of “all republicans are racist or nazis”

Being moderate for the sake of being moderate is not a virtue. No offense, but you probably have no clue what I'm talking about and thus engaging with you on it isn't a good use of time for either of us.

CRT is the default position of every major college or university social science department in America. It's adopted and promoted by the WH. Nearly every major news outlet. Hollywood. Most large corporations. Every major medical organization. The equity council devised by the WH and in the news of late is CRT-based. Every major teacher's org or union promotes these concepts. When major medical schools require incoming students to pledge allegiance to indigenous forms of knowledge and medicine? Where do you think that comes from?

You can say "most Americans wouldn't agree with race essentialism, whiteness is evil, etc." and that's true. But once again, does that matter when it's increasingly a standard position for our institutions?
