The most disturbing thing about Trump's right wing, to me, is how they've essentially adopted the left's convictions and tactics. They're now all in on identity politics and big government intervention. They excuse it in the name of revenge, or setting things straight, or whatever - but they've become what claim to hate.
Ok, it doesn't matter much. You're so wrong in every other way. But this BS is laughable. Mexicans aren't 'woke' in the slightest. They're relatively conservative. Anyway - back to your regularly scheduled whining about brown people.
A couple of conservative Brits discuss the Woke Right with an American conservative. And just like many lefties are against the PC/Identity Politics crap that has caused so much damage to the party, he sees that "Wokeism" is counter-productive on the Right as well.
His definition of Woke Right includes:
Sure sounds familiar.
- Since this comes from the Right, he calls it "Woke Neo-Fascism", which makes sense
- They behave exactly like the Woke Left...
- Targeted influence campaigns
- Create the illusion that there's massive distaste for this or that
- Social Media manipulation
- Highly invested in Reactionary Identity Politics, "answering evil with evil, which the Bible says not to do, by the way"
- Grievance, everything is bad for straight white Christian men
- We're the oppressed minority
- Convinced the elites are trying to marginalize and de-legitimize them
- Lots of lying, character attacks, lots of manipulative speech
- Critical of America -- America bad, America bad, America bad
Anyone with a problem with this can contact James Lindsay directly!

Why did you shorten my post?WTF??? That's one of the silliest things you've posted.
No. It doesn'tWhy did you shorten my post?
Post the rest and it explains my rationale
No. It doesn't
Again if you don’t shorten the post, you would see my rationale.Here's the thing - I'm sick to death of the team sports mentality to politics. I don't decide who to support based on which party the "belong" to. Polis just happens to be far more libertarian than any politician on the national stage. The fact that he's a Democrat is irrelevant to me. Likewise, Trump is the furthest thing from a libertarian I've seen in years. Yet I'm supposed to support him because he's better than Harris? Fuck that.
I saw your rationale. It's bullshit. I vote for candidates, not fucking "parties". Not sides in the culture war.Again if you don’t shorten the post, you would see my rationale.![]()
OKI saw your rationale. It's bullshit. I vote for candidates, not fucking "parties". Not sides in the culture war.
Your endless TDS is always towards the right.I saw your rationale. It's bullshit. I vote for candidates, not fucking "parties". Not sides in the culture war.
How would you know?God Is Not a White Man
Sure sounds familiar.
LOL - sure. I know that's what you need to believe. Have at it.Your endless TDS is always towards the right.
You ARE BS
Sure. Mindless Trumpsters. Each one. This is a Mindless Trumpster board, Einstein.Does it suggest ANYTHING to you Mac that of TWELVE respondents, TEN of them all laughed in your face as a kook? And I was kind not to make that ELEVEN.
Dozens of Trumpster personal attacks. Perfect.
They sure don't like it when a conservative like Lindsay shoves a mirror in their face.
