Oh my. The Woke culture is everywhere, screaming, beating its chest, jumping up and down, overheated frustration and anger. It is pitiful to see them coming unwound. The Woke anti-culture's cynicism has stolen all the wonderful beautiful things from life, and turned them into an ideological cesspool.
