Gender Nonconformity Is A Straight White Person's Ticket To Woke Acceptance

That And The Avoidance Of Conservatism And Anything Associated With It

By James Pew

The woke mostly hate white straight men. But anything associated with whiteness or normativity is also very problematic. Things associated with whiteness, like conservatism and Christianity, also hated. They make this abundantly clear. Their main strategic obstacle is the fact that the white straight people they hate so much are the majority. So how do they go about the open and very public work of “erasing” and “eradicating” “whiteness,” “hetero-normativity” and conservatism?

This is where the woke employ some impressive cleverness. They demoralize and then divide the majority of the hetero-normative white folks up. The left/right political dichotomy is one way. However, it is the left-wing acceptance of woke ideology itself that is the main dividing factor, and the reason certain spaces have become dominated by leftist ideology.

Eric Kaufmann’s study Academic Freedom in Crisis: Punishment, Political Discrimination, and Self-Censorship (which found that three quarters of social sciences and humanities professors are left-wing) illustrates how conservatives are an openly discriminated against minority group in Universities. If you are BIPOC and conservative the woke lose their minds and accuse you of internalized racism, and if you are white and conservative you most likely won’t feel comfortable enough to admit it to your teachers and peers.

Conservative professor David Haskell in referring to Kaufmann’s study had this to say:

“Despite all the attention paid to vulnerable groups in Canada these days, there’s one notable minority that garners no attention or concern. Professors and students with a conservative worldview constitute a small percentage at Canada’s universities. But instead of being tolerated, they’re often treated with disdain - if not outright hostility - by administration and their peers…Kaufmann observed that this massive over-representation of left-wing views has led to pervasive, structural discrimination against conservative views.”

As the intolerance for “whiteness” and conservative, traditional views grows, so does the fear of associating with either. Eventually, no white person (with a survival instinct), would be caught dead holding anything but “progressive” attitudes. Behind closed doors, many of them despise the brutal attack on viewpoint diversity and free speech. So how do you get enough straight white people (the non-woke; not limited to conservatives) to succumb to the pressure of hating themselves to the point of actively contributing to their own erasure? Easy: blame them for all of society's ills. Tell them over and over that they are problematic, that white men are toxic and that straight people should “sit down”, “listen” and “learn”, because they just don’t know what it’s like. Make sure they know that being a good person is measured by one’s willingness to follow a narrow set of rules about what it means to be an “ally” to BIPOC and the LGBT, like becoming self-appointed moral officers who “disrupt and dismantle” all day long.

If you do this enough, eventually you begin to convince an expanding group of white hetero-normative people to hate themselves as much as the woke do. Or at the very least, and as a first step, this virtually ensures many people will avoid supporting right-of-center “white supremacist” politics like the plague. Not worth the social ostracization!

We see this pattern illustrated in Bonnie Kerrigan Snyder’s 2021 book Undoctrinate: How Politicized Classrooms Harm Kids And Ruin Our Schools - And What You Can Do About It. In this passage a group of “frustrated, fed-up upper school students at a private school on the West coast banded together to produce a largely anonymous publication in order to protest the uniform squelching of non-approved views at their school,”

“…the pressure from the teachers was untenable. ‘As a Christian since birth, I have felt that some teachers (at this school) have harassed my religious views. As a conservative, I feel that some teachers (at this school) have shunned my views. Whether it is a teacher telling me why Christianity and the existence of higher deity is impossible or a teacher explaining why Bernie Sanders is unarguably the best candidate and that there are no Republican candidates worth talking about…It is impossible for a student to voice opposition without ruining their relationship with the teacher’”

In September, Candace Malcolm demonstrated with “facts, data and statistics…that Canada is far more conservative than the left-wing media like to admit.” 

“The CPC has won the popular vote in the last two elections, 8/10 provinces have conservative Premiers, and public opinion polls show the majority of Canadians support conservatives values, ideas and policies.” - Candice Malcolm, True North

By denying the prevalence of apparently “white adjacent” things like conservatism, while simultaneously creating an environment where no one wants to be white, straight, Christian or conservative, the woke are winning in their efforts to “burn it all down” and “dismantle” their “evil patriarchy.” Apparently a socialist utopia is on the way, however the woke are a lot more clear about their plans to deconstruct and “tear shit down” than they are about building or creating anything.

Gender Ideology gives a white straight person a “get out of jail free card.” If you are white, all you need to do is declare your gender nonconformity, plaster your pronouns on your email signature, condemn conservatism, agree that society is run by a toxic white male patriarchy, and strongly express your intent to “de-colonize” your mind. Once you do these things, you have signaled membership with the woke. Now you can get on with the important disruptive work of erasing yourself. Congratulations, I’m so happy for you!

PS - I’m not conservative, but if I was it shouldn’t be a big deal. I’m politically homeless, I like it that way. I just want to be Canadian, an advocate for humanism, liberal social justice and democracy. I feel you can do that without being a member of a political party. I like to read broadly - I read conservative and libertarian thinkers. And I read advocates for classical liberalism and social democracy. All of these political subdivision produce worthy scholarship. I say, put aside blind adherence to narrow ideologies and read it all. Let’s get smart people!!!
