A few months ago (coincidentally on the 30th anniversary of the German reunification), I participated at a Tedx talk, presenting “The case for democracy in Europe”:https://t.co/NistTXpZjc

@aritgl @MyabZ @ricpuglisi Ero ironico, veniamo da anni in cui le materie STEM erano considerate rigorose e con migliori prospettive lavorative..Il futuro e' sempre incerto ma con un AI migliore del 90% (99.9%?) dei professionisti STEM (+colletti bianchi), ci sara la rivincita dei "eh ma il classico..."

What was Woke? A megathread documenting the most deranged era of our time 🧵🧵🧵

When AOC declared woke over and dismissively laughed that "Woke 1 was crazzzy", she was sending a calculated signal to the Leftist rank & file that "Woke" was now more of a political liability than a help and it was time to pivot from "its not happening" to "ok it was happening but it wasnt that bad, can we just move on now?"

The online hordes clearly understood the assignment, as the online space is full of ppl either dismissing Woke as "just some online kooks " and pretending not to understand what Woke even was (thus making discourse impossible).

They will adopt a "gotcha" strategy where they will demand to know on the spot exactly what was so bad about Woke and when you dont have an itemized list in bullet points at the ready, will dismiss your entire argument that Woke was bad.

So here I'm creating a thread so you can all bookmark it and use it anytime says "Woke wasnt that big a deal", "it was just online kooks", or "it was just about having empathy and being kind".

You will notice not one of the examples in this thread are "online kooks". Almost every single one is a major media company. Despite the catastrophic reputational loss of the last two decades, these companies are still very powerful and influential, and since most of the public still mindlessly outsources their thinking to the media, they play a key role in shaping public opinion. Keep that in mind as you read some to the deranged things these psychopaths were pushing on us.

If in the future, someone wants to study how, when and why the mainstream media pivoted from Neutral Arbiter of Truth to Culture Warrior, Narrative Shaper and Social Engineer, this thread would be a valuable resource.

So without further ado, what IS Woke?

@visegrad24 "Censoring to save democracy" is like "bombing for peace".

Did you know C.S. Lewis predicted the modern obsession with “being nice” would destroy the soul?

In The Abolition of Man, Lewis argues that when a society stops believing in objective virtue, it doesn’t become tolerant… it becomes manipulable.

He calls the result “men without chests.”

People with appetites and intellects, but no courage, no honor, no trained moral instincts. They can calculate everything and defend nothing.

Lewis saw that once we reject inherited moral law, we don’t become free. We become raw material… easily shaped by propaganda, pleasure, and fear.

Modern man prides himself on compassion while quietly surrendering every standard that once gave compassion meaning.

Lewis’s insight is brutal: a civilization that educates clever cowards will eventually be ruled by tyrants or technicians.

Because when nothing is worth dying for, everything becomes negotiable… including human dignity.

At this rate the Trump administration will release the full unredacted Epstein files to distract from Iran.

@Paul_theLobster Would be in favour of a direct election of the EU President (chairing both the commission and the council)?

[Clemente Cappello @CleCappello]

@BestForBritain You guys make it really difficult to have any sort of confidence in the current EU set up. You are the experts and therefore do not require oversight or accountability by the people, correct?
