Considering how woke would appear it would appear the alternative is racist lmfao

Extreme anything is bad... The pendulum is swinging to the other side Hopefully eventually it will get closer to a middle ground

Historically a far right government movement has ever been stopped by neo liberalism or any other "middle ground" ideology And like again the pendulum didn't swing to the left, neo liberal capitalists used identity politics to attack populist worker movements The same way that right wing capitalists have used race baiting to break up populist worker movements. It's all same side of the coin bby

Yeah, I hear you. I think a lot of people—probably most—aren’t fully on board with either extreme. There’s definitely a pattern of powerful interests using division to keep people distracted from bigger systemic issues. And history shows that when the pendulum swings too hard in one direction, there’s always a reaction in the other. But I don’t think the answer is to just pick a team and ride or die for it. The world is too complex for that. People are frustrated, and rightfully so, but I’d rather focus on practical solutions that bring people together instead of feeding into more division. At the end of the day, most of us just want a fair shot at a good life without getting caught in the crossfire of political games.
