Can someone explain the new religion to me?

[Sixgunsound]

Is the social justice based, heresy driven cancel culture promulgated by the church of woke the modern inquisition?

Woke - Cult-like adherence to social orthodoxy forged by social media algorithms.

They're the new mind virus. They can't point Ukraine out on a map but they support it and they don't even have a reason to. That's them... if something goes wrong, they blame Orange man who hasn't been around for over 2 years. They don't think... they get told what to think.

In the US? It's reaction to the old religion persecuting everyone who wasn't white, Christian, and heterosexual. The shrill SJWs are annoying but have no legal power.

[Sixgunsound]

But they do have the power to commit crimes including homicide, arson, and battery in a consequence free environment, and possess real life get out of jail free cards if they ever do get arrested.

Lol mental illness, ideological isolation and an echo chamber.

the new religion is a bunch of sheep and some bad guys who believe they are the good guys by committing crimes under the protection of social justice and equality

[TheSpaceGnome]

This was unexpected. I am both confused and bewildered.

[Sixgunsound]

Historical church persecuted its own members because they failed ideological purity tests. The new religion is doing the same thing.

[TheSpaceGnome]

I know, I was making a "no one expects the inquisition" joke.

[Sixgunsound]

Dammit, you got me

[TheSpaceGnome]

Lol.

In all seriousness though, woke cancel culture only propagates because companies of popular things go public.

If they stayed private, they wouldn't have idiots with more purchased shares forced onto their board meetings and making new stupid rules for products, websites, services, stores, media channels, shows, games, etc.

[FunkyMonkee]

A NEW religion? What's wrong, aren't the old ones stupid and pointless enough?

[TheSpaceGnome]

Lol you answered your own question.

[jshm2]

That sounds more like your mental illness, than anything I recognise as going on, kiddo.

[D_Bone_Steak]

Progressive liberal identified? No, that shit is mental illness and I think he recognizes it just fine.
