Thruout history, dictators and tyrants have created goblins to gin up fear in order to seize absolute power.
Jews, socialists, fasicsts, communists, 'bolsheviks' ad infinitum, have been used to make people afraid enough to let depots take total power.
It never goes well, the cure they offer is worse than what they made people afraid of.
Now we have a radical right Christian fundamentalist big biz owned movement that's building up 'the woke' as the ultimate evil.
Yeah, good times a'comin'.....
From what I've seen, it the woke businesses like Disney that is pushing an agenda of grooming children through Marvel Comics, Lucusfilm (Star Wars), etc. to their overtly woke bullshit.
and it is bullshit.
Because most people don't about your goddamn sexuality, or sexual preference, or what stupid made up pronouns you want to force down our throats.
most people don't give a shit because it's IRRELEVANT.
It's stupid. FFS, you have training videos where people start out saying "Hi! I'm blablabla. My pronouns are he/him. And I'm blablabla. My pronouns are she/her" WTF! You sound like your in preschool.
Just say your name and move the fuck on. Nobody cares what pronouns you want to be called by.
And I'm a parent who has a kid (they're 21) who says they're bi and says they're "gender fluid".
You know what I said? "you need to grow a thick skin when it comes to this in the real world. get used to people not calling whatever pronoun you want them to use, because they don't have to. You're just gonna have to learn to deal with it."
But Because they're forcing it, the woke businesses and their cult followers are failing. Miserably.
Woke movies, TV shows, comics are not bringing people to the TV or theater.
Top Gun: Maverick and the new Rippaverse
https://rippaverse.com/ of comics are proof of that.
Let's hope we do turn the corner on this insanity.
