“The greatest tyrannies are always perpetuated in the name of the noblest causes.”
― Thomas Payne

“At its heart, wokeness is divisive, exclusionary, and hateful. It basically gives mean people a shield to be mean and cruel, armored in false virtue.”
― Elon Musk

“There will always be someone whose identity is wrapped up in being offended. They're constantly searching for it. These people are the woke mob devotees. Let them be. It's all perfect. Just don't let their tears stop the important discussions from happening. [...]

Good people don't go out of their way to cause suffering, but they also don't avoid upsetting people at all costs. They speak their truth unapologetically.

Discussing topics that might get you cancelled is incredibly important.

Let them be offended.
Do not let them silence you through fear of the repercussions.”
― Benjamin Brown

“The Soviet Union never ended. It reformed itself as the Woke West, a totalitarian liberal, rather than communist, nightmare. Big Brother became Non-Binary Elder Sibling.”
― David Sinclair, Without the Mob, There Is No Circus

“Politics has gone from Right and Left to Left and Wrong”
― Rick Julian

“I am not White. I am therefore immune to infection from the White Guilt pandemic that is currently afflicting the North American and West European nations.”
― A.E. Samaan

“Woke and cancel culture are both signs of a judgmental culture, not a mentally mature one. A world where you cannot even speak to another person without worrying about what they are going to think of you, has not advanced much from the days when the white people used to own slaves. Let me tell you this, if you are kind, if you are compassionate, if you hold no discrimination towards people whatsoever, then you have no reason to worry about whether you are woke enough.”
― Abhijit Naskar, When Veins Ignite: Either Integration or Degradation

“Previously young people had been expected to learn. Because they didn't want to appear to be ignoramuses, they worked hard willy nilly. But now all they have to say is: Everything in the world's nonsense! and that's that. Young people are delighted. The fact is that previously they were simply dunces and now they've suddenly become nihilists”
― Turgenev Ivan Sergeevich

“Think and thank about what is to come saint
The day you stand in astonishment when the veil is lifted, the souls that have been reaped by you because of what Christ has done through you all because you had been in the habit of just simply going out into the world as Jesus said!”
― John M. Sheehan

“I don't know the solution, Daniel, but we'll never find it if we're muzzling each other -- or worse -- banishing anyone from outside our social circle who disagrees with us.”
― Jay Bell, Out of Time, Into You

“The world is the problem; the atomic bomb is the answer”
― Mahatma Gandhi

“Real healing begins in life, and real awakening starts to happen when we stop living through emotion and start living through love.”
― Sonia Choquette, The Psychic Pathway: A Workbook for Reawakening the Voice of Your Soul

“The evolutionary notion of survival of the fittest is embraced everywhere except in the arena of ideas, where every notion, no matter its sensibility, is considered as equally valid as all others, and requires equal accommodation.

The dog born without teeth requires we liquify all food.”
― Rick Julian

“This is not a marriage of love. this is more like mutual prostitution... and it is working!”
― Vivek Ramaswamy

“This idea of purity, and you’re never compromised, and you’re always politically ‘wokeâ€� and all that stuff, you should get over that quickly. The world is messy; there are ambiguities. People who do really good stuff have flaws. People who you are fighting, may love their kids and, you know, share certain things with you.
There is this sense sometimes of: ‘The way of me making change is to be as judgmental as possible about other people, and that’s enough.�
…That’s not activism. That’s not bringing about change. If all you’re doing is casting stones, you’re probably not going to get that far. That is easy to do.
--Speech at the Obama Foundation Summit, October 2019.”
― Barack Obama

“It had been at the height of the summer heat-wave of 1995. One day when she had been wearing the skimpiest outfit the Force could ever officially tolerate, she had seen in Strange’s eyes what she thought (and almost hoped?) were the signs of some mild, erotic fantasy.
‘You look very desirable, my girl!�
That’s all he said.
Was that what people meant by ‘sexual harassment”
― Colin Dexter, The Remorseful Day

“The best version of you is likely the very one that you’re demanding you’re not. And if you want to be something that is less than what you already are, keep on demanding.”
― Craig D. Lounsbrough

“I love you too much to let you pretend that you’re something you’re not. And while there might be a lot of pretending going on in your head, there’s no pretending going on in my heart.”
― Craig D. Lounsbrough

“Woke Is Making America Broke”
― Beta Metani'Marashi

“The Woke will be receiving ecstatic applause as they order the Apocalypse to submit to Wokeness and to stop being so cruel and heartless. Will the Apocalypse be laughing in response?”
― David Sinclair, Without the Mob, There Is No Circus

“You can't join the movement for the thrill of the cause.”
― Michael C. Haymes

“The Devil didn't have to do much; the world did it for him. Discontent mothers taught their own daughters how to hate motherhood, marriage, and family.”
― Allene vanOirschot

“Here's a definition of Wokeism : There are people just sitting there, who are deliberately waiting, for the thrill of being offended.”
― John Cleese

“I would sooner have had that kind of upbringing than be like the left-wing intellectuals who are so 'enlightened' that they cannot understand the most ordinary emotions.”
― George Orwell, Selected Essays

“God invites us to a river to drink, it's a pause, a break from the busyness that drains us of grace. You cannot drink from a river while on the go or on the run. Dryness is so common because people fail to stop, bend and drink. If you are too busy to stop, bend and drink, it will be too easy for you to burn out.”
― Kingsley Opuwari Manuel

“We must remember that attacks from without will always pale in comparison to those from within. And as we reflect on 911, we would be wise to consider the fact that the largest threat to our nation today is less the former and more the latter.”
― Craig D. Lounsbrough

“Books, in their purest form, are vessels of knowledge, gateways to imagination, and catalysts for learning. They possess the incredible power to educate, inspire, and empower individuals, transcending boundaries of time, space, and culture. Books are not mere tools of manipulation or grooming; they are beacons of enlightenment, guiding us towards a deeper understanding of the world and ourselves. To claim that books groom or indoctrinate individuals is to undermine the inherent intelligence and discernment of humanity. Books are not puppet masters pulling the strings of our minds; they are companions on our journey, offering insights, perspectives, and narratives that expand our horizons and challenge our preconceived notions. In the realm of literature, we find the freedom to explore diverse ideas, to question authority, and to engage in critical thinking. It is through books that we encounter heroes who teach us about courage, compassion, and resilience. We discover worlds beyond our own, cultures we may never experience firsthand, and histories that shape our present. Books are a refuge for the marginalized, a voice for the silenced, and a catalyst for social change. They have the power to ignite revolutions, dismantle oppressive systems, and inspire generations to fight for justice. To accuse books of grooming is to ignore the countless individuals who have been transformed by the written word. From the abolitionist movements fueled by slave narratives to the civil rights movement propelled by the works of Martin Luther King Jr., books have consistently been at the forefront of societal transformation. They have the ability to challenge the status quo, dismantle stereotypes, and empower individuals to think critically and act conscientiously. In a world where disinformation and manipulation are rampant, books provide a sanctuary of truth, authenticity, and intellectual rigor. They encourage us to question, to seek evidence, and to seek multiple perspectives. Books cultivate empathy, broaden our understanding of diverse experiences, and foster a sense of connection that transcends borders. Therefore, let us not succumb to the fallacy that books groom or brainwash individuals. Instead, let us celebrate the power of literature to uplift, to enlighten, and to ignite the flames of curiosity. Let us embrace the freedom to read, to explore ideas that challenge us, and to engage in open dialogue that fosters understanding and unity. In the words of Frederick Douglass, 'Once you learn to read, you will be forever free.' Books are the keys that unlock the doors of knowledge, emancipation, and liberation. They are not tools of manipulation but instruments of empowerment. Let us cherish them, protect them, and ensure that their transformative power continues to shape our world for the better.”
― D.L. Lewis

“CRT poses, in essence, a sharply pointed question. What, really, were the chances that the white, propertied men of the early American Republic would set up a judicial and political and economic system that didn’t privilege...white, propertied men? Critical Theorists would say those chances would be, approximately, . . . zero.”
― John G. Stackhouse Jr., Woke: An Evangelical Guide to Postmodernism, Liberalism, Critical Race Theory, and More

“Ours is an age of reckoning - savages call it wokeness, I call it correctiveness. And it is only through correction that this savage species might, just might, one day become human. It is only through correction we apes might one day usher into the dawn of humanity.”
― Abhijit Naskar, Iman Insaniyat, Mazhab Muhabbat: Pani, Agua, Water, It's All One

“Ours is an age of reckoning - savages call it wokeness, I call it correctiveness. And it is only through correction that this savage species might, just might, one day become human. It is only through correction we apes might one day usher into the dawn of humanity.

As usual, those who are fixed in the ways of the forefathers would instantly react to this as woke propaganda. So be it.

Propaganda is everywhere - bigoted apes give in to their primitive ancestry and propagate hate and division - I, a civilized ape, refuse my innate primitiveness and choose to propagate love and inclusion. Savages choose tradition, I am human, so I choose transformation.”
