Similarly, the NBA has done a great deal to promote Black Lives Matter (even arranging for the slogan to be stencilled on the court alongside its own logo). Yet when fans wanted to express support for the Hong Kong protests in 2019, they had their signs confiscated on the grounds that the such signs were “political” and therefore prohibited.

"When feminists or adjacent social justice types talk about being woke, they often refer to a moment of realization that shifts their entire world view. They stop seeing the world in the way they used to see it, and instead they see every interaction between every individual as a nested system of power play, with each group attempting to dominate o...
Noah Carl: "I’ve previously defined it as a belief system “which sees identity groups like sex and race as the primary units of society; which attributes to some groups the status of victims and to others the status of oppressors; and which posits that various ‘structural’ and ‘systemic’ forces stymie members of the former groups while conferring ‘...
1. By the Red Goat Collective, published in Counterpunch: 21 Fallacies that Fuel Cancel Culture. 1) Optics are more important than Substance. Worry more about how things look from the outside, and less about what’s happening on the inside—be it a meeting, an organization, an event, a relationship, or an artwork. External appearances are not even ‘e...
How did the woke ideology become hegemonic so fast ?
A credible combination of hypotheses, presented by Noah Carl: "The basic idea is that – with the launch of Twitter, Facebook and Instagram between 2005 and 2010, and the invention of the smartphone in 2007 – it became much easier for left-wing activists to mobilise politically. Where before, they would have had to meet in physical locations (or private chat rooms), they were now able to meet, chat and exchange ideas in the digital public square – affording them untold new opportunities for ac...
The Origins of Woke Capitalism in a Baptist-Bootlegger Coalition Dynamic
Noah Carl: " This alternative theory says that corporate entities coopted what was initially a fringe left-wing movement to further their own interests. Unlike the first theory, it posits a largely top-down process. In particular, some shrewd actors inside large corporations – you know, the ones that put LGBT flags in their logos during pride month – realised that woke pandering was an excellent way to earn brownie points with the Democrats, shift the conversation away from tax-and-regulate,...
The Transformation of Activism in the Early 2000s
A very readable testimony on the 'pre-history' of the current model of identity politics, as told by an anarchist activist. Joseph Keegin with Wesley Yang: "Turn-of-the-century anarchism was less a set of political beliefs than a world unto itself: a person could live nearly their entire life patronizing anarchist institutions, participating in anarchist activities, interacting primarily—if not only—with anarchists speaking the language of anarchism. A traveler to an unknown city could plug i...
Michel Bauwens: Here are some preliminary notes about the meaning of the emergence of the woke movement in the US and elsewhere. I define the woke movement as a social movement that: 1. Claims to want to end unequal power dynamics and the end of oppression and privilege by majority groups towards minority groups, with the main privileged groups believed to be white males, who prop the unjust domination of the West 2. Claims that to obtain this equality, we must practice equity, i.e. a form of...
Woke Ideology And Class
Rhyd Wildermuth: "These are all what can be identified as core ideological beliefs within Woke Ideology without delving into sectarian or secondary corollaries. It’s important to note the crucial difference between the core beliefs of Woke Ideology and the core beliefs of Marxism, and we can do this best by looking at the one identity category which doesn’t appear in the list, class. Class analysis forms the core of Marxist political beliefs, as iterated in the first two sentences of The Comm...
Alban Wegner on Redistributionist Strategy
Alban Wegner: "My take on this is as follows: "Wokism" represents a certain type of claims-making in modern-day democratic capitalism, as it exists in multi-ethnic, multi-cultural societies. "Claims-making" IMHO understood to mean three things concurrently: Firstly, woke spokespeople claim to represent (the overriding interests of) certain social, mostly ethic- or gender-based constituencies. By their specific way of doing this, woke spokespeople reify social groups which progressive scholars...
