A great comment on a wonderfully worded article.

The only problem being that, from what I understand of Critical Theory, Social Constructivism and Post-Modernism - the three pillars of the Woke DNA - objective truth, logic, rationality and Reason are deemed ontologically irrelevant as they are the product of the despised white Western philosophy and vision of the world. Therefore, any attempt at dismantling the Woke incoherences through logical reasoning are incurably bound to fail. The proponents of this ideology have devised a tailored dialectic which renders any such attempt self-defeating.

They are heralding an age of Post-Truth and Post-Reason which is truly frightening, all the more so as we commoners remain helpless and unable to fight back because they have managed to strip us from the tools to do so by their self-feeding circle of non-logic. The Orwellian epithet probably has never been so accurate to describe what is unfolding right now.
