#250 Wokeism is a Cult that is Destroying Society

It wasn't too long ago that I would have been hesitant to make such a bold statement -- that wokesim is a dangerous cult. That's because I have many beliefs that are in line with the underlying viewpoints, such as open-mindedness, acceptance, and tolerance. But after lots of study, research, and observation over the past year or two, and, being presented with multiple 'case studies' of woke ideology gone wrong... Plus combining that with books we've been reading such as Crime and Punishment, Anna Karenina, Brave New World, and The Psychology of Totalitarianism... We've come to discover that sometimes virtues can go to far and become vices. This is why we now feel passionate and confident about saying that 'wokeism is a cult that is destroying society'. Why a cult? ALL religions first began as cults, until they reached a tipping point in membership. But cult members share beliefs, practices, words, phrases, and ideologies with each other. They can identify one another by their signals, signs, FB profiles, preferred pronouns, and the flags they fly -- just like members of other cults or religions. Unfortunately, what began as virtues of compassion, anti-racism, and tolerance are starting to go too far in dangerous ways -- resulting in loss of life, increased crime, and destruction of property and the basic frameworks of society. We (all of us) are watching it unravel before our eyes -- IF we pay close attention and know where to look for red flags. And it's time for us to stand up and speak out.
