We all end developing a woke brain module in the course of mocking it and having to navigate around it.

An expenditure of electrical (in this case biochemical) energy as great as crypto.
Everyone of these facetious interventions either has or soon will be used in earnest
Only the first tweet is serious. The rest are mocking it, but by those deploying well-developed woke brain modules

Kendi is not a Critical Race Theorist but a monomaniac who turned CRT’s critique of racial liberalism into a demand for final authority over every law and public official in America
The chattering class is hesitant to embrace Kendi-ism in full. They know he is a fanatic with totalitarian ideas. But the institutions, the corporations, the tech oligarchs have all already anointed him. So, why the hesitation? What residual values are still in play?

"I believe the there is no possibility of using the university as the base from which to change society" -- Theodor Adorno
He underestimated the scope of what a university-based politics could achieve, but anticipated well both the repressive technocratic character of the politics it would generate and the reaction it would summon up in response to it

Air Force removing running test requirement from its fitness tests, allowing airmen to choose a walking test instead taskandpurpose.com/news/air-force…
Also replacing "traditional push-ups" with an exercise of "raising their hands up while in push-up ready position..."

"give airmen flexibility to do the test the way they want.."
So, they did away with weight and waist measurements last year, but are in the process of some still to be determined "required body composition measurement."
