    Wokeness was basically a poor-man's civil rights movement of the 60s.

    Overall it simply brought more overall awareness to lots of things which is good. It moved the dial over a notch. Now bigots are a bit less concerned with gays and have turned their focus to trans, and even with trans many have narrowed their fake outrage down to just the children. So i do think overall it helped LGTB people. And the same can be said about minorities. It forced a lot of people to take a deeper look into race and that is good no matter what the outcome.

    Did wokeness go to far? In some instances sure. It's not black and white, the whole thing is grey, but generally speaking it brought more awareness to everyone.
    Look at this fool writing paragraphs defending his radical woke agenda which is crumbling right before his eyes.

    Anyone with a brain saw this coming…

    The pendulum was always going to swing back massively the other way
    The majority have had enough of all this bs.

    DEI is shit, there are only 2 genders, if you’re woke you’re a loser.

    The woke movement will be like Marxism. It will get flogged on and on long after its been discredited. The usual suspects will keep the flame burning.
