empires require assimilation of new peoples and such to grow, they cannot afford to be particular or nationalistic else they will fail. wokeness is the denouement and recuperation of cultural avenues opened up by the organic negativity of marginalized groups to expand the ekumen of the empire, which is why it always feels forced, faked, and flabby relative to the real thing -- because it inevitably becomes a mere simulacrum of what is going in marginalized communities, made palatably safe for the dominant class. this is why Pride has become cringe, how corporate diversity efforts and other forms of "woke" end up falling flat. even the use of the word woke is a great example of wokeification, having been taking from AAVE and mutated into the creature we now know it as

not obscene, just deeply concerning

@risperdoll on the one hand, this is literally the language they use to get creationism and worse things taught in schools

on the other, i'm actually perfectly fine with the world domination of an immovable, unstoppable leviathan built of a multicultural mosaic combining the strength and beauty of every culture of the world
