The "woke" all have the same opinions and aggressively attack any deviation. It acts like a parasite or virus that contains a payload of dogma replicating itself from host to host. It turns rational people into zombies, so mind virus describes it very well. Challenges to the dogma are considered dangerous as it threatens the ability for the virus to spread.
You're right that the virus could be a different variant, like the anti-woke variant, and it'd be a problem too if it parasitized as many brains.

If you believe in literal zombies, I'd gently suggest to you that your own grip on rationality may not be as firm as you believe.
- orangepurple 4y agoIt may not be unfair to claim that it's "everything conservatives don't agree with." While that may or may not be true, it more specifically refers to a type of hivemind.
- rnd0 4y ago>While that may or may not be true, it more specifically refers to a type of hivemind. It sounds to me like you meant "colliqually" -as in "in informal or slang usage", not "specifically"? In every conversation I've had on the subject where I've tried to nail down a definition of the term, the intended meaning is always different. Unless I'm very mistaken (please correct me if I am) there isn't an objective universally-agreed upon definition of what Woke means. It's used the way "liberal" was in the 1990's or "SJW" was in the 2010's -an empty pejorative that ultimately only adds noise to any conversation it's unironically used in.
