This is what people mean when they talk about "woke right."

The idea that the entire culture is a system of ideology operating at the subconscious level that brainwashes the masses comes directly from the radical-leftist counterculture of the 60's.

It's also totally wrong🧵 Image

There is a segment on the right who saw the dominance of the left and have been studying the leftist counterculture literature. They accept the left's view regarding how culture and society work, and have decided to adopt the radical lefts worldview, methods and tactics...

Healthcare organizations are bringing DEI into everything because accreditation agencies that give the accreditation required to receive medicare funding (effectively gatekeeping medicare funding) are making DEI part of their mission.

Let begin with medical education.

Gen z is going through gender-based asymmetric polarization because the left convinced women everything is political and refusal to adopt leftist politics makes one complicit in oppression

This idea has been floating around universities since the 90's

It's also clearly wrong... Image The problem with the claim was pointed out in 1993 by John Searle:

That a thing has political consequences does not mean the essence of the thing is political, the purpose of the thing is political or the standards by which the thing is judged ought to be political standards... Image

AOC was all-in on Identity Politics and intersectionality for a decade, but now all the fruit of identity politics/intersectionality has been picked.

She's moved to economic issues because she left has to make a "material turn," toward economic issues to advance their ideology. Image
Image
Remember, the radical left advances their ideology dialectically: they set up a thesis (identity politics), and antithesis (economic class warfare), then create "synthesis" made from elements of both.

What AOC is trying to do is mix identity politics with class warfare...

This is the most important executive order Trump has signed thus far.

Ending "disparate impact liability" is the first step to destroying the DEI ideology that the left installed in Government.

Disparate impact in the United States refers to practices refer to rules that adversely affect one group of people more than another, even if the rules applied are neutral. 

This means disparities in outcome at the group level can be taken as evidence of discrimination...

The question the right needs to answer is this: "The left captured all of our cultural institutions so they could use their credibility, prestige, and ability to confer legitimacy, to advancing the left's social and political agenda. Now, what are we going to do about it?" This is a much harder nut to crack than people think, because the credibility, prestige, and legitimizing functions of our social institutions depends on those institutions being oriented by truth rather than a pre-determined political agenda, and the truth seeking capability...

NPR and PBS are publicly funded media outlets that have been taken over by radical leftists and turned into Progressive advocacy organizations

These outlets use taxpayer dollars to hire woke activists to do progressive advocacy

Here's why we should defund @NPR and @PBS

NPR doesn't seek to provide honest information to listeners.

NPR's role in the media ecosystem is to bury stories that harm progressive causes while amplifying stories that hurt conservative causes

That's why NPR buried the Hunter Biden Laptop Story:

The meta-level problem at the heart of the @DouglasKMurray/@ComicDaveSmith controversy is that legitimate expertise in the form of deep and genuine knowledge, and the credentialing process through which people get degrees and certificates have become completely divorced... Universities have been taken over by political activists who use them as a vehicle for advancing radical leftist politics (typically of the neo-marxist variety). Now many professors value loyalty to their political causes more than they value knowledge and competence...

What @DouglasKMurray was saying is that Darryl Cooper, Ian Carrol, etc, are happy to wield a degree of influence in public historical discourse that is typically reserved for experts, but refuse to be held to the intellectual standards we hold experts to.
What @DouglasKMurray is trying to get people to understand is that if one wields a high degree of influence, then one must also take responsibility for that influence. This is accomplished by holding to the highest standards of scholarship and ensuring proper rigor and accuracy.

Universities were conquered by leftist political activists who tactically deployed postmodern theories in the service of eroding our confidence in the standards of legitimacy and rules of evidence that stood in the way of the radical left implementing their ideological program... These activist professors engaged in the cynical deployment of a caustic discourse in order to cast aspersions on any body of scholarship whose knowledge claims might serve to impugn the moral sensibility and political orthodoxy of the radical left...

Conspiracy theories are the rights' version of Critical Theory

Critical Theory says hidden/unnoticed systemic forces (discourse, capitalism, racism, etc) control people - Conspiracy theorists say hidden/unnoticed cabals of powerful people control people

It's the same structure In both cases there is some hidden or unnoticed thing that is controlling people in ways they don't realize, and is operating against the interests of the people being controlled.

And in both cases the solution is to "wake up" and learn to see the forces that are controlling you

Let's begin with sex change surgeries for teenagers.

UnitedHealthcare's Gender Dysphoria Treatment Policy allows Sex Change Surgeries up to a year before a person turns 18, if the person has 1 year of hormone therapy.

That means starting hormones at 16 and surgery at 17 Image
