“For years now, I’ve been critical of the use of the word ‘woke’ as a mere pejorative to signify anything the reactionary right hates. Indeed, ‘woke’ has become what Ayn Rand once called an ‘anti-concept,’ a grab-bag package deal of disparate, contradictory elements cobbled together with no logical or contextual sense. It is ironic that those who have rejected the pronouncements of the ‘woke’ left have now become champions of their own form of cancel culture, imposed top down through the countless executive orders and intimidation tactics of Donald Trump. … When politicians get to decide ‘where woke goes to die,’ the death throes of liberty cannot be far behind.” (09/08/25)
