Here’s a good summation of how James and you (by peddling his retardation) are incredibly wrong in your world view.

James and the other "woke right" salesmen played too much pokemon and magic cards in their formative years. They view a deep perversion of normal human mentality, invented last week in historical terms, as "the default" that everyone should be held to as a standard. They think "the 90s were awesome," because they were kids in the 90s and so this is their baseline for "normal."

This is why they see normalcy as an "elemental inversion" of "woke." They think of it like a video game where you cast ice on the fire monster to kill it.

They recognize "woke" as different from the worldview of that time, but they don't see that it's the same worldview as their own, just at a higher volume.

So when a backlash happens, they try to "correct" it back to their halcyon days, when everything "felt normal." But it wasn't normal. It was stage 2 cancer, "woke" is stage 4, and what they're calling the "woke right" is chemotherapy.

The key to understanding all of this is sovereignty. Do people make their own decisions about how they want to live? Or does the state make those decisions for you?

"Woke" thinks the state has the right to do this, and that the state should take from some people and give to others (redistribution).

The "woke right" salesmen also think that the state has this right, and the state should enforce a "colorblind meritocracy," which is not possible in practice, and will always lead to "woke" emerging again when the state inevitably decides that "equality" must be enforced with redistribution.

The new wave of normal-minded thinkers emerging today believe that the state does not have this right, and people should make their own decisions about who they share their stuff with.

Liberalism is early-stage blank-slate. "Woke" is late-stage blank-slate. "Normal" doesn't believe in blank-slate, "everbodyism" fairy tales and correctly wants functional defenses against group-based interests that are hostile to their own.

The liberal philosophy is based on the naive, schoolgirlish idea of "if everyone just." "If everyone just believed in everybodyism, then everybodyism would work!" Just like communism. "If everybody gave according to their ability and took according to their need, then communism would work!"

But everyone will not just. They do not want to just. You cannot write a law that will force everyone to just.

Normalcy is when you see how people are and respond to it according to your self-interest. Everything else is "but if we could just make everybody see..." But you can't. You cannot just.

If your philosophy is based on a fundamental denial of human nature, it will fail.
