I actually think we're probably already at the point where the marginal bit of anti-wokeness is on balance more bad than good. (Not the same as wokeness being good, because anti-wokeness doesn't just fight wokeness, it also has many, IMO mostly bad, side effects) https://twitter.com/0FJAKE/status/1783928239099875386

What’s missing from anti-wokeness is any positive description of values and preferences worth promoting.

Ooh you got it briefer than me. How about: If you don’t like what a woke person is advocating then solve their problem another way.

This implies there’s underlying agreement on the problem / values though. Which I don’t know is always the case

If you keep decomposing, every question turns into one where you agree on problems, but disagree on prioritization (is problem X large enough to be worth solving it with method A which creates another problem Y...?) Once at that level, you agree X is a problem, and even if you think it's minor you can try to go solve.

maybe I'm missing what you're saying, but aren't there still object level disagreements about problems between groups? what was the shared problem MLK and white supremacists agreed on?

Hmmm… maybe sentiments like “We want to be treated fairly” “We built this country we deserve a part in it” “Please don’t attack us” Not that both groups had an equal claim, but both groups felt like they had *some* claim. Idk.
