We Are Running Out the Clock on the Tyranny of Wokeness

Sometime in the last year we hit peak woke, the summit of stupidity for this pathetic and disgusting ideology of communist race/gender/whatever obsessions. The election of Donald Trump pounded another nail into the PC coffin, although the ghoul is still thrashing about trying to break free. But the purveyors of this dreck are going to fight to keep it alive, but there’s no way they’re going to resuscitate it. People are sick of this nonsense and, right now, we’re experiencing the tail end of wokeness as this idiocy plays out. We’re seeing the last stand of this grotesque cultural phenomenon in academia, politics, and especially Hollywood. If this is the hill wokeism want to die on, fine – as long as it dies.

And dying it is. Donald Trump’s famous “
He’s for you, she’s for they/them” ad, which took a stand against bizarre trans idiocy, was just the start, and boy, are they mad about it. Oh no, Donald Trump and all of America are transphobes! OK? What else you got? Go ahead and throw us in that briar patch; the voters are all in there already. The American people have spoken, and what they said was, “Shut up, weirdos.” When the man pretending to be a woman who was elected to Congress from Delaware, of course, decided he wanted to hang out in the women’s restroom, he knew that was going to make a stink. He wanted to be a martyr to the cause. Instead, he got told, “No,” and looked like an idiot as well as a mentally ill person.

The change is happening out there in popular culture, too. On TV, you can now occasionally see an ad that doesn’t look like a meeting of the UN General Assembly or New Year’s Eve the Castro District. I married a female-identifying birthing person across ethnic lines – my wife would be Latinx if “Latinx” wasn’t a nonsense classification invented by idiots and repeated by drunken leftist wine women – but every single couple isn’t absolutely diverse. For the last couple of years, TV ads insisted that they were to the point where it became a punchline. That wasn’t representation – that wasn’t to show that some people do marry across racial and ethnic lines, which is a true statement. It was performative finger-wagging designed to show you that you are bad because they imagined that you couldn’t conceive of it happening. You are unenlightened, and their job is to enlighten you by making sure that the doctor in the ad pushing eczema medicine is a gay Māori Muslim with a limp.

It was the same thing on TV and in the movies. They used to complain about the token minority cast member. Now, everybody’s a token. It is all a statement, not that these are the most talented actors and actresses but that you are a bad person and we’re going to represent every classification besides Romneyites all the time to demonstrate that to you. Take that, racists, sexists, and whatevers!

It’s annoying because these moral illiterates have nothing to teach us. This is not education. It’s not even indoctrination. It’s an accusation. You normal Americans clearly don’t believe a black woman could be a judge, so suddenly, every judge in every show is a black woman. And as annoying as it is to be treated like this by Hollywood, as if they have the moral standing to improve us, it’s also unfair. There are some black women judges. My mom was a woman judge, albeit not black, so it’s not crazy to have a black woman judge. But when everybody’s a black woman judge, it’s an insult to black women because it denies that they can achieve through their own merit. Instead, it has to be handed to them by a bunch of screenwriters who are today largely obnoxious white women with the Ivy League degrees. The white savior complex exists, and it’s basically leftists being condescending to everyone else – especially minorities.
