It signifies an awareness of social injustices, especially those related to race and inequality. As is often the case, movements that begin with constructive intent end up pushing their ideas to the extreme becoming similar to, if not worse than, those perceived as opponents. In our view, this is happening with the Woke culture, which originated by seeking to raise awareness of racism and social injustice, and is now actively promoting its own form of racism and discrimination. This process transformed Wokeness from a cure to a disease.Select the statements you share and that reflect your thoughts.

The problem arises when that sense of wariness turns, due to dual thinking, into an us vs. them mentality.

Thinking that you can do and have everything without giving anything in return highlights an extremely selfish and childish attitude. The direct consequence of this is that people end up feeling free from individual and social responsibilities, losing sight of moral and ethical values that must underlie any society that desires to call itself “civilized”. Taking responsibility away from people fosters exactly the kind of mentality that Woke culture would like to eradicate, since awareness of actions taken and possible consequences is lost.I want to be free to express my sexual orientationHumanity has existed for thousands of years along with all forms of sexual orientation and perversion, but until a few decades ago there was no need to make them public. Wouldn’t it make more sense to demand, and before that to give, respect for everyone regardless of one’s personal preference? Obsession with personal sexual orientation ends up creating problems that once did not exist, plus it makes young people even more confused and fragile. Moreover, once again, it only emphasizes the differences between people instead of the commonalities.Minorities should always be protected and preservedAll right, so it is enough to declare oneself part of a minority in order to be able to take any kind of reckless action without facing the consequences. Being part of a minority means nothing; what matters are the actions and motivations that drive people to do what they do. People should...
