Calling them "Woke Right" isn't vacant. It's deep. It pulls from a proper understanding of Fascism as a reaction to Marxism and weak "liberalism" as an alienating force. When Jordan and I called out Woke Left 10 years ago, we were right then, and we're right now about Woke Right.

It's a tool of demonisation and marginalisation. It's precisely the kind of thing William F. Buckley Jnr did to neuter the American right of his period when it looked like those most concerned with America's interests--not Israel's--would rise to prominence. Tell the truth, James. You saw what he did, and you thought... "I could do that."

You didn't call out woke left. Woke was a left movement (specifically a rebrand of 'Awaken to class consciousness') It has deep left wing roots and self identification. Woke left called out woke left. The same cannot be said of the astroturfed "woke right" meme.

Dude literally thinks renaming the reactionary right "woke right" is somehow an intellectual achievement. But because the reactionary right wasn't popular enough, and the hype around Woke died, thus James' attention dried up, and he came up with this fascinating idea to lump in nearly every significant commentator on the right with the reactionary right. It is a masterful grift at staying relevant, while perfecting woke tactics, pushing all the right buttons.

It’s absolutely spot on. Surgically precise.

Just turn your sound down to zero and watch James’ body language. It’s not the body language of someone who knows he has truth on his side. Imho.

Jordan pointed out that the fundamental problem with the left is they can’t admit when they go too far. That’s woke. The right now increasingly has that problem. It will be the fuel for the democrats’ comeback.

Aside from being critical of Israel, is there anything else that constitutes a core characteristic of the so-called "Woke Right"?
