Some have said that "woke" is a virus of the mind that affects the ability to understand and interact with reality. Jack Posobiec recently spoke at the Conservative Political Action Coalition (CPAC) in Budapest, Hungary, where he explained how being woke "fundamentally subverts one's ability to function and engage with reality in a meaningful and authentic way."
People infected with wokeness blame racism, white supremacy, homophobes, misogyny, religion, climate change, capitalism, etc. when things don't go their way.

Wokeness is a fad, not unlike hoola hoops, pet rocks, Valley Girls and hippie culture. It will last for a while and then mostly die. We are already seeing it. It will eventually be replaced by something equally stupid for the masses to sign onto and defend with everything they have.

Hoola hoops aren't demented, invasive, cancerous ideas...all of this insane woke business is. Woke is a destructive infestation and I seriously doubt that waiting it out is a viable strategy.

Wokeness is not the problem. Wokeness is just the thing that rushed into the vacuum created by abandoning truth and common sense.
We are no longer moored to the dock of reality or the anchor of common sense. THAT is the issue. Today it is wokeness. Tomorrow it could be something else.
Regardless of where the latest current might take us, its power to do so only exists because we are adrift in a sea of relativism.

Read the headline to my wife and she responded, “…well it’s got a good head start…”

Folks who fault medicos for treating symptoms without addressing the disease might also understand "Wokeness" as a symptom. The actual disease an entity of itself.
"Weak men make hard times"
As do corrupt men, who, in their swollen numbers, mark the end of good times.
At least for the near future...

We have once again allowed the radical left to identify issues using THEIR terms. We LET them label themselves as WOKE; the implication that follows is that WE must be the UNwoke--- backwoods, out of touch, tone deaf morons who are incapable of coming up with reasonable solutions about our future. They excel at this scheme and use it time and the again because they know we have no proven effective defense. Think about how we allow them to label us as CLIMATE DENIERS---putting us in the peculiar position of having to deny being a denier.
So a good start for us would be to eliminate the word "woke" from our vocabulary and instead add the following words to describe Democrats at every opportunity: ALARMISTS, scaremongers, doomsayers, pessimists, fatalists.

Diversity, multiculturalism, "woke" are all the means the globalist banking cabal is using to influence and control the Western world. One world government control over our lives. It is about freedom - the third world is not a problem as they are used to being controlled
The global banks and pension/investment companies control the availability of companies' working capital through Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) and a Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) scoring. Toe the line (currently the line is supporting trans)or no money for you. I am quite certain the big banks are invested in companies making trans clothing and other trans gear and forcing the sales through the companies they are invested in.
JPMorgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimond said people will never freely accept social change so it must be forced upon them and that is the banker's job.

Agree with posters above. Wokeness is the symptom. Left wing ideology is the disease. Trying to suppress it without addressing the root cause will make it surface somewhere else in another form.

Our demise will be due to our inability to think and use our brains. Wokeness is just a manifestation of that.

Wokeness is the latest wave of the ongoing war against western civilization, which is itself founded on divinely inspired Judeo Christian ideals that recognize all individuals are created free and equal and united by a faith in God. Wokesness seeks to displace the natural order with a socially reconstructed world where elites control the weak, the meek and those whom power over others they do not speak. There is no sin but sin against the collective—failure to recognize global warming, overpopulation, racism, and this month, failure to genuflect at the rainbow altar.
Wokeness is the lack of recognition of God, and simultaneously an insistence that others worship not truth and love, but a message of falsehoods, social reconstructions, manipulated emotions and hatred and nullification of those who will not serve those who will not serve.
Pleased to meet you, hope you guessed my name...

Jesus Mom showed up at Fatima and warned about Russia and China. Obama is but a human servant of the real evil. Not for nuthin.
