Another disturbing dimension of the Right’s new cancel culture is that it abandons not only free speech, but also the very conservative principles conservatives once championed.
IMO, wokeism is when your social history is searched, sometimes many years back, for comments that are currently politically incorrect.
IMO, with the firing of teachers and others for expressing joy and triumph for Charlie Kirks death: this reaction is totally different than searching the past.
I'm biased because I think the left killed the exact person we need right now to come closer together. I think that the left did not know that the Charlie Kirk murder would arouse such sympathy and anger. Of course the left regards this murder as a "green light", and as a starting point for further conservative murders, and has communicated this belief very clearly to the world.
"Intetesting times" (in the sense that this comment could be construed as a curse) are in the future, if the left continues in this vein. Globalists (and its my belief that much of this division is deliberately sought after by them) really dont have a functional upper limit- they may believe that they might even be able to "ride out" a nuclear war, in their bunkers underground. Everyone else would die, and its clear after the covid operation that this is exactly what is desired.
Marks comparison is a very flawed one b/c it comes from a position of need and not observation. He and others lie him know the 2 are not comparable. The right was being cancelled for saying factual statements like men can't have babies and as you pointed out, the left was looking thru the person life to TRYT and locate something to get angry about and who amongst us has NEVER said or done something stupid when young that we later regret? The Left are experiencing consequence culture that should simply be called consequences but because the Left has not had to deal with accountability and consequences for so long it's now a foreign concept to them.
As why is Mark and others comparing the 2? Their doing this for the same reason they (although I believe James Lyndsey was the first to coin the term ) created this bogus "Woke Right" group. With 300+ million people in the US alone its not hard to locate one ore more people who fit some cutout or profile but unless you can find a sizeable number they are just outliers and not representative of any real group that needs selective identification. The woke left is millions where as this so called woke right is more like dozens maybe? They created the woke right out of fear.
While these guys are definitely not on board with the progressive woke left ideology that has destroyed the Democrat party they still are %100 for liberalism they just want to return to the liberalism of the Obama and or Clinton era, when it still had all but eliminated all traces of Christian influence in governance but was not yet supporting mutilation or the sexual grooming of minors. They fear that the success of the pushback against woke has been so effective that the pendulum may swing much further then they want. The classical liberal/academics' biggest fear is a return to a 50's Christianity centric American society, when women stayed home to raise their own kids (vs getting the government to do it), where you could live off a single income and when Christianity was the central focus for the majority not just in the home but on society. Its an atheists nightmare and they know that if we are able to get to that point that with all the existing issues the youth are dealing with that they may like it and want that to be the new norm. A society like this would either end public education as it is and switch to private schooling and homeschooling like alternatives or would di a complete reset of public education eliminating these public unions that run the thing and put in place restrictions that would make it very hard for the activist to go back to indoctrinating peoples kids.
We have many in massive student loan debt, which is held mainly by female graduates who often have degrees in fields that can't provide a job with enough pay to repay the loan. Getting married and finding another to help pay of that burden may be just enough for most young women to ignore feminist ideology that tells them that marriage and being a stay at home wife/mother are oppression/slavery and give it a try. They KNOW that if anything remotely like this comes to pass and is embraced it will take them many generations to get society back to where it was in the pre-woke era of Obama and or Clinton.
These guys fear a return to a Christian centric America that is free of the mass indoctrination system that currently exists and they have created the woke right and are trying to compare consequence to cancel as an effort to try and put on the brakes some with the pushback so it doesn;t swing that far.
