I see the headline, which appears to thematically duplicated on a different headline and instance of the same basic thing. Questioning the rubes at CPAC. So. What is woke? Get no coherent response. The duplucatiin, I think, comes with an answer from the author of a book on woke, and I am guessing he may have given a response that is coherent, just not one that is … Er… Politically correct — mind you not that I have to agree, just… It has cohetence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It is less of a gotcha than they think. I have a definition in mind mindful of how it came to be popularized by its well meaning not evil adherents before becoming a punchline. But I do not know that it came affixed. The word slippage is something lije, oh, neoconservative — a word that had historical context in meaning, retained some meaning even as time wiped out its historical context, then as it became a punching bag effectively became meaningless except for those who are mindful of using it in a proper term. A more immediate and more related word may be “critical theory” — most impactful of course “critical race tgeory”, which has a meaning and has prophets are a bit duplicitous in setting it out, but whose popular opponents basically drop the meaning utterly as they carry on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
