It’s palpable.  The significant shift in the zeitgeist.  We can see it in popular culture, we can see it among regular people, and we can even see it more in legacy media.  The peak time of woke has passed.  The election of Donald Trump in overwhelming numbers in all but the most hardcore left states is a testament to the change.  And even in those left leaning areas, the shift in voting dynamics is underway. While Trump himself did not start the change, he personified the frustration that the vast majority of the population had felt for decades. They were fed up with the suffocating edicts of the militant left that they endured; at first gradually, then in a torrent.  The vote was a massive rejection of the increasingly severe rhetoric of the left.  Even at Madison Square Gardens in New York, the very heart of left, woke culture, Trump was welcomed as a hero while attending an UFC event.  The adulation and appreciation throughout the packed crowd was electric.  Finally, a champion.

For decades, the over-riding narrative propagated by the left in all sectors of society was “tolerance” and with that, the associated notion of diversity.  Tolerance and diversity were the impenetrable armor of the left as they proceeded to widely suppress and change the mindset of Americans. But something sinister happened along the path to leftist nirvana. That was the realization that a third critical component came with these two ideals:  and that was compliance. George Orwell presciently wrote of this almost 90 years ago in his classic novel, 1984. It’s incredible just how astute an observer of human nature he was.

Who would argue against the benign aspirations of tolerance and diversity? To do so would be as if you rejected ice cream and cake.  The problem was that everything became framed by these ideals and only certain people were allowed to frame them.  Thus, any opposition was characterized as unsociable and subversive to ‘mainstream values’. The term “politically correct” came into being.  They took a page from Henry Ford’s strategy, that is: you can think any way you want, as long as it’s our way.  This was the shield by which the left was able to coerce Americans into beliefs and behaviors more and more at odds with the fundamental values of the majority of Americans….and indeed worldwide.

When the principal concerns for the left became the right to end the lives of babies, to have men participate in women’s sports, to insist that sexually confused people MUST populate positions of responsibility in society, as well as promote unqualified people into jobs based solely on arbitrary demographics, the end was near.  We saw people with clearly deficient mental abilities promoted to positions in the name of diversity.  I suppose dumb can be considered diverse.  Ironically, it is a testament to the very tolerance of mainstream society that we withstood it for as long as we did.  In other words, mental illness was force fed into a population that finally recognized it as such.

This much is evident post the Trump victory as a women’s movement is underway to shave their heads and abstain from sexual relations.  Certainly this will be more of a hardship for some than for others if you’ve seen any pictures.  They didn’t even have the presence of mind to understand that their woke beliefs meant that men would in fact replace women in all aspects of life….apparently even giving birth. We have famous celebrities leaving (or only threatening to leave) because of their irrationally held fears. The charade is exposed; these people are nuts.

Thus Donald Trump is the target of the collective moaning and wailing, but the stark reality is, we’ve likely passed the zenith of woke and hopefully can now return back to an age of reason.  A large part of the population have finally pushed back against the oppression of submission.  They are no longer interested in acquiescing to the bizarre edicts of the insane and continuing down the rabbit hole of woke.  Weird is out; we can all celebrate normal again.
