As a student of the rise Nazism, I listen to these depressing recountings of Woke with the perspective of the Nazi handling of 'The Jewish Question' and the emergence within German universities of 'Racial Biology' and 'Aryan Studies' as a thing in the curriculum.

Woke is exactly the same kind of rhetorical racist tripe that the very basically educated Adolph Hitler picked up on in pre-WW1 period in Vienna.

Comprehensive, insightful, unorthodox, true. Calls of racism are generally calls for group advancement in an unfair, non-meritocratic fashion. The woke make up stories of victimization to promote ever more affirmative action hiring. Current obsession with skin colour a blight on human progress.
