Are people woke because they hate themselves?
First let us define, "woke." As seen in the allegory of cave by plato, "woke," is a state of enlightenment such as in transitioning to the lucidity of wakefulness from the thoughtlessness of slumber. "Woke," is gaining an awareness of reality from the fantasy of dream.

Now let us consider the reason for our existence. Humanity lives, not moment to moment but through the millennia, as a result of intermingling and diversifying our DNA. We yearn to experience life with the strange and the nothingness so different than ourselves. We seek the excitement and wonder of that which is different.

Please consider: What if, "wokism," is a result of rampant and unrestrained idealism? What if in pursuit of discarding the ordinary people have blinded themselves to that which is most ordinary- the self. What if people are woke because they hate themselves?

I can only find a single flaw in my logic but it does not invalidate the conclusion.

Reasons why:
- People just came into the internet and being groomed into these things
- Being groomed due to being bored
- Being bored in general

I have seen a case of mine that there was this person I know was extremely happy back even around pandemic, but she started to shift into the radicalization online around 2022 and turned herself into worse. Glad that she seems to move out of that in 2023 and live normally and does things she always does to have a life again like drawing stuffs she likes

There are three types,

There are machaevellian psychopaths like Hasan who can afford luxury beliefs which not only cost him nothing, but its how he grifts his living.

and

The brainwashed who hate themselves.

and the natural traitors who are a combination of the above.

"What if, "wokism," is a result of rampant and unrestrained idealism?" Yes it is a luxury belief.

I'm still trying to figure out what "woke" even means, Same with a lot of terms used these days.

I'd probably be better off in the 60's or 70's than today.

woke is like including a disproportional amount of minorities in advertisement because you want them to be more popular than they are

Same! It was also hard to find love because I automatically checked away all of the good people to defend my stupid beliefs back then which left me with nothing but weirdos

In a democracy i thought the majority is meant to rule even if they are minorities?

Like here in NZ, We have MMP meaning if you don't win the most votes but can form a coalition then you can form a government, Does that make NZ woke?

People are woke because they think that it's a shortcut for being a morally good person.
They adhere to a certain set of rules, and they think that following these rules makes one a good person. Conversely, they also believe that people who don't follow these rules aren't good people.

So they try to use these rules as weapons to declare others as unrighteous and themselves righteous, just like the Pharisees that Jesus denounced in the bible.

True. I think it is a trend or something to make themselves feel better. Like screaming online won't solve a thing
