Are Hamas Misunderstood?

"Woke" is just another way of saying "unhappy, anxious, and depressed," according to a pair of new studies — but which is the cause and which is the effect? Before we get to the juicy stuff, a little science courtesy of the Scandinavian Journal of Psychology. The studies found that having "critical social justice attitudes" — i.e., being Woke — meant seeing people "foremost as members of identity groups and as being, witting or unwitting, perpetrators or victims of oppression based on the groups' perceived power differentials." That isn't your beloved Aunt Mabel who always has candy in her purse. That's a victim of the Patriarchy and she doesn't even know it. But you can (and must) help! Because of their worldview, the Woke must "advocate regulating how or how much people speak and how they act if there is a perceived power differential between speakers, and intervening in action or speech deemed oppressive."

If I were to define Wokeness, I'd say that Skynet took vanilla political correctness and manufactured a cybernetic organism out of it — living tissue over a metal endoskeleton. It's the Terminator T-101 of political correctness and it can't be bargained with. It can't be reasoned with. It doesn't feel pity, or remorse, or fear. And it absolutely will not stop — ever, until you are as unhappy, anxious, and depressed as it is. Very briefly put, what the studies found is that "self-reporting as woke was also correlated with depression, anxiety, and (lack of) happiness. Anxiety, depression and (lack of) happiness were strongly correlated with each other." Men were far less likely to report being Woke — and suffering from being unhappy, anxious, or depressed — than women were. Like this guy.
