It's okay, Europeans have their own equally stupid but probably more dangerous forms of identity politics.
Is anyone else a bit tired of how the word "woke" is being used now? What the hell does it even mean? Like "identity politics", it's another scare word or term that means whatever you want it to mean.
While I'm somewhat critical of the phenomenon in a liberal US context, "cancel culture" discourse in this country is extremely moronic where the left is marginalised at almost every lever of power. Conservatives run the state broadcasting company and people in the (all of the most-read) papers manage to complain about "cancellation" as something that meaningfully exists in a UK society where transphobes have the run of things. The intellectual colonisation here has been by "anti-woke" ideas if anything.
