An interesting look at the current Culture War, from the perspective of the 2020 election being the "Email Caste" equivalent of Pearl Harbor, insofar as the idea was to shock and awe the "Deplorables" into going back to being forgotten and serfs of the elites. But just like the Japanese after Pearl Harbor, it didnt lead to a surrender, the Deplorables are rising up like the sleeping giant, and this is the worst possible outcome for the Woke because they already maxed out their war machine for 2020, while the Deplorables are just getting warmed up. And thus it becomes a war of attrition that does not favor the Woke the longer it goes on.

The article even predicted the Trucker Protest in Canada by several months:

In the conflict between the ”woke” and the ”deplorables”, the latter by and large work the kind of jobs where if people walk off the job, it takes days or even hours before one or more critical parts of modern society starts shutting down. If pilots call in sick, planes simply do not get flown. If truckers quit their jobs, every facet of the entire productive economy – from the smallest bakery to the biggest car manufacturer – will quickly become paralyzed and then starts to suffocate. If firemen refuse to go to work, the cities will quite literally burn down in short order. But what happens if people at the average NGO stop showing up to work? What happens if an university professor in critical gender studies refuses to come into the office until this or that issue is solved? How many months or years will it take for the average citizen in flyover America to notice that this person is missing? And when they finally do notice that some gender commissar is refusing to show up at work, will they even care?

Another thing that is not in the article but is worth considering. Essentially, the likes of Klaus Schwab and the WEF have taken this very problem and made it global, and it probably means the Great Reset is doomed before it even gets totally off the ground. After all, the reason that Canada is the one rebelling and not the US is because we never got that far. But if even the CANADIANS, who are most well known for their politeness and non-confrontational tendencies, are chaffing at the WEF's plans, what will that do for other nations?
