  5. Most people are not bothered by someone using more inclusive language, it's when someone tries to correct others for using language they consider less inclusive that many otherwise very reasonable people get annoyed. It feels insulting.

    In close relationships when the time is right, these conversations should still happen. And think what you want of people based on their word usage. But otherwise, our lexicon needs to change organically. It always does. #wokeism

  7. "So was it too censorious, often priggish, and prone to going way too hard? Absolutely. Did it lead to cringe and unbearably preachy art? Yes. But did it hasten along better social norms, shocking us out of genuine expressions of hatefulness? Also yes."

  9. Eliphalet Nott was Presbyterian minister and RPI (Union College) President. He says many wish they could serve Jesus like Martha (Luke 10:38-42). Yes, Jesus has ascended above beyond our physical reach. But Matthew 25 says that kindness to the pious poor is the same done to Christ.

    Today, many seek extrabiblical ways to express zeal for service to “Christ himself”.

    How can you open your doors to the Son of David?

    One would think #racists would be a LITTLE more circumspect before accusing a major news outlet of "racism".

    They live in a world where they see "The #Woke Agenda" being imposed upon them everywhere. ("The woman in the foreground looks Middle Eastern, ergo, she must BE Middle Eastern.")

    The (obvious) question of WHY would the BBC show footage of Muslim women in a story about the Pope?" never even enters their mind. They are just SO threatened by #Wokeism that they see it everywhere.

    the ideology thing and enforcement in woke circles can be culty, but it lacks the figurehead. I mean even Bernie got derailed as being not woke enough for going on Rogan and having Bernie Bros. (he called open borders a Koch brothers conspiracy for cheap labor) since then, he seems to have fallen in line.

    I just did another post arguing for #AltRight instead of #MAGA. I think that's much more similar to #wokeism.

  14. #wokeism is illiberal progressivism. my fellow lefties often fail to consider if anything they are doing is illiberal, while many conservatives call every progressive impulse woke.

  16. I'm seeing an uptick in video essays under the guise of "just asking questions" attempting to claim there is a conspiracy to destroy #OpenSource, #OpenHardware, #FOSS projects and culture by Far-Left Extremists, #Wokeism, and the #DEI agenda.

    None of this is new. They only exploit a new sense of entitlement to more openly speak and act as they long have, emboldened by the spread of anti-democratic, authoritarian, irrational, emotion-driven, ethnocentric rhetoric and assaults on liberty by #Trump and the #TrumpRegime

  18. #DOGE Reign of Ineptitude. Slashing and burning won’t help with efficiency. With the creation of the Department of Government Efficiency #Doge #Musk has claimed for himself an extraordinary amount of power: Serving as the iron fist of the #WhiteHouse, he’s rooting out what he sees as the #plague of #wokeism in government, halting #grants, freezing #payments, lighting fires in various departments, and generally firing as many people as he can get away with. theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/

  20. You're not pushing back on #CancelCulture if you only do it when conservatives get attacked. Not when pro Palestinian voices get shut down etc. You're just taking a side in the culture war.

    Same with recognizing #wokeism as a religion and complaining about it, but not complaining about religion in other areas of public life. It's illiberalism everywhere that's a problem. The failure to prioritize the pursuit of truth and understanding each other over ideology and tribal power. #LiberalValues

  22. Everybody wants the best possible outcome. Some perceive #DEI as leading to lower quality hires and #criticaltheory leading to a misunderstanding of history. Taken too far, I think both can do that. But done well, they both do the opposite. They allow us a fuller view of what's out there, correcting for our own natural bias and the cultural bias built up over generations of having too few have more of a say in the public conversation. But getting this right won't be easy. #wokeism #LiberalValues

  24. “We see on our own streets antisemitism guided by obscene woke ideologies that have led to an explosion in hate crimes”

    Pierre Poilievre’s hate filled propagandist speech at the National Holocaust Memorial Ceremony yesterday was a disgrace to all Canadians.

    He neglected to mention the millions of innocent victims exterminated by Nazis, or condemn the current disturbing rise in fascism across America and Europe openly embraced by his own elite supporter Elon Musk.

    Ultimately, Pierre’s true fear for the future is a Canadian culture that is aware of and actively attentive to important societal facts and issues (especially issues of racial and social justice).

    That is a culture that would reject a Prime Minister who intentionally refused to recognize more than two genders exist.

    That is a culture that would reject an illiberal autocrat hell bent on removing established civil rights and supports while openly embracing big money corporate interests over Canadian values and beliefs.

    This is not our future Prime Minister, this is just another RW populist looking to further dehumanize and attack those culturally aware in Canada.

    Trump’s success has emboldened #MapleMaga to believe they can win the culture war with Pierre Poilievre, they simply need to relentlessly attack their ultimate enemy, societal awareness.

    Thanks to Steve Boots for covering this, as #cdnmedia yet again fail to show how much of a hateful, divisive prick Poilievre truly is.

  26. George Leslie Mackay, 1st Presbyterian minister to Taiwan, mentions the welcome the people gave him. (He had some medical training). After bringing out their sick, they were happy to listen to the gospel. They asked for their own preacher.

    What would modern Christians do if a town they intended to live in had sick and suffering approaching them?

    How can you give physical relief to the sick and suffering and the hope of the gospel message?

  29. I basically agree that #wokeism is a #religion as conservatives say but then it should get tax-exempt status too. Or as is my preference, take away that privilege from all churches instead. #atheism

  31. Kimberlé W Crenshaw for the Guardian:

    American democracy is in peril. And racism will be the sledgehammer that destroys it

    The ‘war against woke’ is not just a war against critical race theory and Black history. It is a war on our democracy

  33. Daniel Atkinson Clark, a Presbyterian minister, describes benevolence. It goes abroad, and tries miseries into joy. This is the offspring of a heavenly temper.

    Some contemporary preachers talk about joy as a litmus test, where someone has to doubt salvation if they don’t have enough joy. Clark, too, would have us focus on joy, but on increasing the joy of others.

    How can you spread happiness today?

  38. Red Flag in produce.

    Standing at the cash register at our market today some rando middle-aged guy tells me he likes what my shirt says.

    Then he tells me he has a favorite shirt about #pronouns and #wokeism. Finally he says "I like to think I'm a pretty nice guy until somebody triggers me." 🙄

    Part of me wanted to ask him what he did when he wasn't standing around cash registers trying to get somebody to pull his trigger, another part of me wanted to leave and never talk to him again.

  39. I've been a big fan of #JonathanHaidt, but his fear of the effect of social media on kids comes off to me as exactly the kind of moral panic we had in the past, that he now blames for #wokeism. @mmasnick digs in and brings the receipts. my question is who on the different sides of this argument, will get a fair hearing of the other's perspective? unless they talk to each other in a public forum...

  41. Should #classicalEducation appeal to politically #conservative people who are paranoid about #wokeism?

    Does “#Western” thought heroize only White, male #Christians?

    This longish piece in the #NewYorker sketches the history of #classical #ducation, its #progressive proponents (like #JohnDewey), its recent proponents on the right (like #RonDesantis), and more.
