We don't. We have the social justice types, which nobody can agree on the origin of or their leaders.
Surely we can agree on the source of the philosophy though? What we call woke is directly derived from the works of the neo-marxists Herbert Marcuse & Antonio Gramsci, where it is now evolving in modern universities through the works of people like Kimberle Crenshaw. There's a reason why Ol Mayor Pete seemed to come out of nowhere, until you discover who his father is and whose works he translated and brought to America. His commie credentials run a mile deep.
Basically, you're all correct in some manner. Woke thought comes from left-as-fuck germans, jews, and women uniting together to create the new proletariat as proscribed by the neo-marxist Herbert Marcuse specifically by destabilizing the youth via sexual corruption. It's just plainly not EVERY german, jew or woman and that's where most of our most uh, fervent, members lose me in terms of pure statistics.
James Lindsay may still be a shitlib, but the work he's done on laying out exactly what "woke" is and it's historical roots is excellent. Over and over James repeats that "we are living in Marcuses world" and I couldn't agree more.
/edit
Maybe I should go back and re-watch James videos, post them here, and follow up with a couple paragraphs summary. I'd be very curious if anyone can debunk his claims. Now that I search our forum, it doesn't seem like anyone has been posting his new discourses videos.
