Are these pairings all supposed to be mutually exclusive? Because what if I think the government shouldn't criminalize speech but also you shouldn't be an obnoxious racist rear end in a top hat generally?

given that america's "we need to restrict public bathrooms to protect us from the queers" is a very direct and overt echo of jim crow, I guess the UK has that to look forward to.

Uk centrists (and particularly anti-semitism obsessed Uk centrists) have a very bizarre relationship with the Labour Party. They continually shriek that it's riddled through with racism, appear on tv news denouncing the party, post endless tweet-chains about how their mental health is being ruined by the Labour party's disgusting acceptance of anti-Jewish racism... but they never actually leave. It's kind of a: "We must destroy the party in order to save it" mentality, although even that doesn't quite fit as an explanation for their weird, weird pathology.

The party's values have to perfectly reflect their own values because liberals substitute the social for the personal. They will never leave because it's their personal crusade to make Labour the goody good party for good boys who like to be good.

I think it would be useful to define "what is the opposite of woke".
That might lead to some interesting answers and might get people to think about it a bit more.

Woke (as my right wing acquaintances seem to think) =
  • actively supporting equalities (whether gender, race, religion etc)
  • actively supporting tax-payer funded support for people in 'reduced circumstances' eg no job, disabilities etc (one of my most right wing acquaintances is severely disabled and relies heavily on the NHS - she would be completely uninsurable in the ideal world of the right - but I digress).
  • thinking people are more important than statues
  • anything that shows you have concern for more than your immediate family

Looking at that list, if the anti-woke had to specifically state what the anti-woke position is might make some of them wonder about their values systems.
