The Marxists also had a term they called &#8220;false consciousness.&#8221; I think it means something like this: you know what &#8220;class consciousness&#8221; is but you reject it, because you know it&#8217;s bullcrap.<\/p>\n<p>3. I once heard erg use this term to describe ace.<\/p>\n<p>4. Don&#8217;t know if there is any comparable term like &#8220;false woke&#8221;. Maybe sleepwalking?<\/p>\n<p>5. Anyway, the point is, &#8220;woke&#8221; is a concept that was basically lifted from rat bastard commies.<\/p>\n<p>6. Eventually, as blue vs. blue conflict increases, we&#8217;re going to start seeing &#8220;woke fights.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>7. They won&#8217;t be called that, but that&#8217;s what they are.<\/p>\n<p>8. At some point, the various factions of woke will start making distinctions between &#8220;woke&#8221; and &#8220;woke woke.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>9. And these woke groups will be all &#8220;woker than thou&#8221; to each other<\/p>\n<p>10. To a &#8220;woke&#8221; person, the only thing worse than not being &#8220;woke&#8221; is being &#8220;woke&#8221;, but insufficiently &#8220;woke.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>11. These blue-on-blue slap fights will be hilarious to watch.<\/p>\n<p>12. Even better with popcorn<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>At Ace of Spades H.Q., OregonMuse fishes in the comment stream and finds a question that needed to be answered.
