    The right is devoid of culture

    They don’t create they destroy

    What they have, they stole

    How about “woke”? Surely the word “woke” in it’s current context was first introduced into popular culture by a white cishet christian man right?

    It’s not coincidence. They know. The right is forever lifting and co-opting from the identities they oppress. Compelling art depends on a compelling idea. They have few compelling ideas, so they steal the compelling art.

      ‘Fascist’ referred to an anarcho-syndacalist union originally, before Mussolini coopted the word for his own party.

      MFs can’t even invent a name for their own ideology.

        That’s because Fascism is not an ideology. They have no ideals to strive towards, there’s no transformational principle they aspire to. The only core tenet is: reach and stay in power by all means and at all costs. Thus the admiration of strength and the obsession with strong men. Whatever ideological or political principle they claim to support, including conservatism, is based on an utilitarian view. It will be trashed and denounced the very second it stops being of use. Ideology is but a coat of paint for the fascist and their collaborators.

    The term “woke,” meaning to be aware and attentive, especially to issues of racial and social justice, has a rich history in Black culture. Its origins can be traced back to the early 20th century when “stay woke” was used as an in-group signal for Black people to be aware of systems that harm them. This phrase gained further traction with musicians.
