Also you could argue a lot of the problem with wokeness is putting on the focus on less important things (empty displays of virtue about things that happened a century ago etc) whilst more important things get overlooked.
For example, big tech is very happy to posture endlessly over fashionable issues that cost nothing (put up a few posters, have a hashtag) but not so much on something like wage inequality (where they import people from OS and pay x times the national average).
- feet 4y agoMy assumption is that your comment about things that happened a century ago is referring to slavery. This is something that has impacted numerous generations of people and the racist ideology that sprung from that period has put into place numerous legislative systems to prevent people in poverty from gaining ground. We exist as part of a system, so yes it absolutely is relevant. Mobility is at an all time low, so examples of "but I made it" are irrelevant
