The Pluses of Anti-Wokeness

New York Magazine leans left and proudly so. That said, one can still find interesting stuff there, including this article which argues that “anti-wokeness” is the new ideology of the Republican Party.

The author believes it holds advantages for the GOP, and it well may. Defending First and Second Amendment rights fits nicely along with giving Republicans a claim to “victim status” which everyone knows is today’s hot ticket. It feels like the Trump legacy. 

In spite of the author’s biases, it it a worthwhile read.
