Apologies Jotom. I only occasionally check the Evraz board so have only just noticed a whole thread named in my honour.
By woke I mean a radical left wing agenda incorporating but not necessarily restricted to: divisive critical race theory that is the opposite of MLK’s call for people to be judged by the content of their character, not the colour of their skin; extreme trans ideology including approving permanent mutilations performed on teenagers and allowing men into womens sports safe spaces and prisons; the insistence on the most extreme policy interventions to impose net zero in a futile attempt to stop the climate ever changing again, which fails to recognise that CO2 is a symbol of a much more complex web of problems relating to pollution and resource depletion which eliminating human produced CO2 will do not to solve; the abhorrent normalisation and embrace of virulent anti-semitism going hand in hand with illogically embracing radical islsm which is the opposite of progressive; a belief that a bigger state is the best way to solve all problems, and that therefore unlimited borrowing to pay for it is good. Well, I could go on, but you get my drift. The American election is a decisive rejection of this agenda.
By the way, did you know that trump’s vote barely changed from 2020? Actually shrank a bit. But this time, the republicans had observers, attorneys and stare police at every ballot counting centre. The Democrat vote shrank by 13 million. Amazing. Makes you think, doesn’t it.
