Examples of pseudo-wokeness:
Calling very small things that aren't even racist "racist" for no real reason.
Discriminating against white people, men, and straight people, thinking it'll "counter" the discrimination against people of color, women, and LGBTQ+ members that happened in the past and the present.
Any sort of corporate pandering
Doing any of the examples of pseudo-wokeness shown here won't fix the fire that is bigotry. It'll just create another "anti-fire" (which is really just another fire) that'll burn down society even more and possibly even strengthen the pre-existing fire.

I commented on Christopher Rufo's 4/26/2023 video
"The Assault on Sexual “Normativity” Is an Assault on the Basic Structure of Reality"
===
WOKE = Will Only Kriticize Europe.
8:30 CR understands WOKE as James Lindsay does. JL: "Communism doesn't know how." "Ruthless criticism of all that exists." CR: "It functions almost entirely on the process of negation." and he then proceeds to throb with commie-wrecker energy.
But his formulations for WOKE, while accurate, aren't as short and snappy as mine. ;)
There was a need, a few weeks ago, for a SHORT & SNAPPY definition of WOKE.
Here's one to take & run with!
"Only" to be taken in many senses.
Woke will never criticize non-European cultures; Woke will never be able to do anything by itself.
WOKE: WILL ONLY CRITICIZE EUROPE.

Get the WOKE mug.by #aimforpeace April 29, 2023
Get the WOKE mug.originally an African American grammatical error, dating back to at least the 1940s, meaning AWAKE in a political sense. In the 2010s Black Lives Matter (BLM), introduced it to a wider audience. It was immediately misappropriated by white middle class pseudo intellectuals, and used as a virtue signal. The irony being that the people who claimed they were WOKE were always the least AWAKE.
Now used as an insult to describe people that don't have any knowledge or understanding of any socio-political concepts (except that which is drip fed to them by the main stream media and education system), but like to make a lot of noise and trouble for everyone else. Cancel culture is WOKE, political correctness is WOKE, things that don't exist like, white privilege and systemic racism are WOKE ideas, critical race theory and critical queer theory, are both WOKE.

To use an example from the film The Matrix. WOKE people are those that took the blue pill but have convinced themselves that the took the red pill.
