^What you are describing is a perspective that exists but it is not "wokeism." (And incidentally I agree with that perspective. It's true that because racism is embedded in the structure of society no one is immune to it and it's difficult to avoid perpetuating it.) The meaning of the wor... |

I do agree that this has definitely become like 9/11 all over again. It should be noted that Islamaphobia has also increased in the post-10/7 period just as antisemitism increased in the post 9/11 period (Jews did 9/11 for world control). But Islamophobia was the primary bigotry inflamed by 9/11, a... |

Zionists shouldn't be allowed to get away with tossing this word around anytime someone brings up the ethnic cleansing of the Palestenians. Yes! It's a serious problem that any criticism of Israel is labeled by some as antisemitism. There are valid reasons to criticize the state of Israel, particul... |

A subset of progressives or leftists and a subset of people who identify as woke are the same thing. Woke is not an ideology nor is it a particular group of people. It merely refers to an awareness of societal injustices and an awareness of the systemic nature of such injustice. Just about any left... |

^I believe those viewpoints are motivated by the false belief that criticism of the state of Israel is tantamount to antisemitism. When any defense of the rights of Palestinians is conflated with antisemitism, then antisemitism can be found everywhere. I have read a lot of progressive Jews who are ... |

^Well, now you're changing your position from what you first called woke ideology to saying that a small subset of people who identify as woke subscribe to the positions that you mentioned. It can't be both. Yes, there are antisemitic people on the left and right, but the left as a whole strongly o... |

They have nowhere else to go. 3. A one state solution dominated by the other side or a two state solution would mean t... |
