1⃣THE DEATH OF GOD.
A condition in society where a once powerful religion has withered and its people have lost faith. Remnants linger on in ‘secular’ forms. Now and then, its ideas are resurrected and find garbled expression in new political creeds.

2⃣POSTMODERNISM.
A belief that the stories we once told ourselves are no longer believable. The heroes, villains, voyages, and goals of our religious, political, or scientific narratives no longer hold weight. The stories we tell ourselves about these stories are also empty.

3⃣NIHILISM.
The feeling that everything is meaningless, that life is pointless, that things lack value, that existence has no worth. There follows a scramble to fill the void. Since any meaning is better than none, the likelihood of selecting a destructive one increases.

4⃣TRAGIC INDIVIDUALISATION.
The Internet brought global connection but thinned the social bonds that anchored us. A person must deal with greater global uncertainty alone. There follows an anxious urge to mark territory, to put down roots: “safe spaces”, “belonging”, “a home.”

5⃣GENERATION SNOWFLAKE.
A term from the film Fight Club. An alienated generation, ultra-touchy, hyper-alert, fragmented, racked by feelings of inferiority, addicted to digital dopamine hits. Like Tyler Durden, they turned their “identity” into an adventure.

6⃣THE POWER PROCESS.
Goal ➡️ Effort ➡️ Achievement
The feeling of power or control comes from creating a goal and applying effort in pursuit of it. Since society has now catered for most needs, artificial needs are manufactured to fulfil this purpose.

7⃣PROBLEMATISING.
In an interview with his research assistant shortly before his death in 1984, Michel Foucault described his body of work as: “problematization.” Many university departments became problem-making machines. By the mid-2010s they had produced this:

8⃣WOOZLES.
Winnie and Piglet went hunting for a creature called a Woozle. They pursued its footprints in the snow. But every so often, more and more tracks began to appear. It turned out they’d been following their own footprints in a circle around a tree. @G_S_Bhogal explains:

9⃣PROJECT GUILT.
Power and control are maintained by creating and continually strengthening a sense of guilt, through the prospect of punishment, social ostracism, public shaming, "cancellation", or struggle sessions.

🔟THE INVERSION OF VALUES.
The blurring, reversal, or reinterpretation of values and meanings.
Victimhood becomes virtue.
Speech becomes violence.
Madness becomes holiness.
Man becomes woman.
Truth becomes immoral.

And here's an extra one.
❗️RESSENTIMENT.
French term used by Nietzsche. A raging envy directed at a person or group that appears stronger, more powerful or successful. Strength, power, success are decried as “evil.” Weakness, insecurity, or inadequacy is interpreted as “good.”

Thanks to @JohnFMiller86 for the graph picture that was on your pinned thread. I can't imagine you're a fan of rap, but the first tweet in this thread has a song about Wokeism which you may appreciate.
