Wokeness is certainly among the strongest movements in developed Anglophone countries,
having a huge discoursive power, and embedded in structures of authority for quite a long time. Last 7-8 yrs it became more visible simply because its demands are growing more radical, and it started to fight a wider circles of opponents.
- varjag 6y agoIt can be a powerful movement on its own without being anything at all like Soviet authoritarianism. I seriously fail to see the point in this comparison except as a cheap rhetorical device. Let's find parallels to the crusades or Inca human sacrifice, am sure it's just as relevant.
- brokenkebab 6y agoWell, you probably didn't read the text. There are very fine-defined points to compare, nobody draws any wild parallels.
