Lol!

I'd probably define woke as radical inconsistency with a special focus on an external locus of control. More specifically, cultural Marxism and its associated madness.

I know I'm preaching to the choir, but I feel like venting about it, so lemme break down where my problem with woke gender pseudoscience lies as if speaking to one of its hardcore adherents, and we can all vent together:

I love freedom of expression, and I don't even mind too much if you mess with the language and say "no, gender is subjective; it's defined as the thing you pick for yourself or whatever you think it is." That's all ok to me, personally, and it's also perfectly legal and should be from a libertarian standpoint.

But then you say "no, actually gender self-assignment is the objective determinant of what gender is in all cases for all purposes, and everyone should recognize that this person is what they say they are, else everyone who dissents is clearly objectively incorrect by virtue of having an opinion contradicting the individual in question's opinion." Yeah, ok dumbass. Contradiction in bold defiance of the very nature of subjectivity, but I'll play along. Maybe you can chalk that up to a MAJOR change to the definition of the word (though a very deleterious change to the language) and still remain logically consistent, if we're giving you the benefit of the doubt.

Then you say "we need to force everyone to comply with the language." In 3 steps we're practically at 1984 already.

Then you say "it's not enough for a genderqueer person to believe they are something in particular, but they also have to conform to the stereotype of the gender they pick." Uhmmmm... yeah you just threw away your original premise of individually determined subjective gender identity COMPLETELY. What the fuck is the point at this point?

Oh but there's more??

Then you say, "also all of society has a moral obligation to fund any transformations they may undertake to become more of the appropriate gender stereotype." This coerces those having money stolen from them AS WELL AS some of those who would otherwise have given the procedure a second thought, through price distortion. Many people waste their time and their bodily health pursuing this operation, because it is artificially made cheap and being touted as a panacea.

Then you say, "no wait, children are not in charge of their own gender identity at all; they are what we push them to believe they are, according to our subjective inclination based on foggy mental heuristics! We should 'educate' children about this new pseudoscience immediately and catch them while they're young and easily malleable! It's ok, Jennifer, if you're upset, it's probably because old white men are telling you that you are just a girl. But I can make you more than just a girl. Try my eight week program and see results almost instantly! You have nothing to lose but your entire natural development that was developed through a million years of evolutionary refinement! **nonrefundable - the woke corporatocracy hereby disclaims all responsibility and washes its hands of this experiment on children**"

Wow so now you're contradicting yourself, destroying language, coercing taxpayers, AND coercing children into butchering their bodies before they know what they are doing. You're so compassionate, and sensible, you woke dipshit.

That is woke. It's Marxism. It's an insidiously rapey religious cult, and it has failed every goddamn time it was ever materialized in full, including before Marx and before Adam Smith's unfortunate Calvinist labor theory of value. Murray Rothbard's history of economic thought explains the early Christian communalism (tyrants and criminals wear many masks, none more dangerous than the mask of virtue). That experiment was a statist smorgasborg of rape, theft, murder, and more rape, where neither women nor men were recognized to have any ownership over their bodies whatsoever, while the heads of this unholy city piled up the gold and what little production was made for themselves, and proclaimed the head of all of this to be a god. In the name of this god, under his divine right to make binding decrees, and for the collective good, mandatory rape was the law of the land.
