Separate post for a reply to a separate topic: > Do you not think that there's a case to be made that white supremacy has found a voice in certain parts of the internet? > If you do agree, how would someone go about discussing how to tackle it without being dismissed as woke? Yes and yes. Though the kind of genuinely heinous stuff that actively wishes ill on our fellow men is generally very, very niche. Wokeness is a very specific way of approaching things, so you definitely can. The issue is mostly that woke activism has been steadily eating left-liberalism alive for the past decade and more. The result is that a lot of avenues for talking about a topic or for understanding them are very limited. It's like 99% of math teachers went gaga over Common Core and did nothing else for twenty years. If you protested against Common Core, would you be protesting against the idea of teaching children mathematics? Hardly. But once you're familiar with wokeness, it's a very distinct thing and you can definitely distinguish people coming at it from a different perspective. It's not hard at all. I would caution though that a lot of the modern concern about racism etc. is whipped up by the media: https://www.tabletmag.com/sections/news/articles/media-great-racial-awakening https://www.tabletmag.com/sections/news/articles/media-great... Similar hockeysticks exist for most other social justice related topics.
