The problem with woke is this isn't the 1800s. We fought for and ended slavery. Had the civil rights movement. And as a nation corrected the wrongs of the past.
Then came the Democratic party with redlines, Jim Crow laws, and the creation of the welfare state through LBJ. It's entirely too politically opportunistic to me, to be this pessimistic and in denial of our history to lean into this ideology, when it's coming from the same party that created these problems to begin with.
Yes, Nixon was a jerk. That happened, but you can't co-opt all of history because of the actions of one bad actor... Though every day we continue to dig up that dead horse and continue to beat it one more time.
What's more problematic is the coordinated effort at home and abroad to facilitate mass migration from Central America and subvert our laws to allow illegal entry into the US while at the same time working to grant voting rights to non-citizens. It would erode the character of our nation that allowed us to set right the wrongs of the past. Case in point, the flood of support for Hamas and Hezbollah (known terrorist organization, designated so by the federal government in the US, and the EU).
How can we as a nation or a larger coalition of allies stand against tyranny when we are politically supporting it?
