Nonetheless, the phenomenon is undoubtedly global. Wherever you go, it is hard to escape social-justice warriors. World police, indeed.
Like all The Economist articles, this has such little substance to it.
Lmao at their recent anti-China headlines on their main page 
:
Mr Rozado’s new paper ["The Great Awokening as a Global Phenomenon"] takes things further. He analyses 98m news articles, tracking words such as “transphobic”, “racist” and “sexist”.

"Wokeness is when people acknowledge racism and bigotry exist" is a more mask off moment than I expected
"There's NO SUCH THING AS RACISM. Although I consider myself racist and will criticize people for not being racist enough.....but there's no thing as racism btw."
Do these dumbasses hear themselves speak? How do you deny something YOU CALL YOURSELF!? It's like chavs whining that people call them gammons even though they call themselves gammons.
A journal that speaks for the British millionaires, is pursuing a very instructive line in relation to the war. Representatives of advanced capital in the oldest and richest capitalist country, are shedding tears over the war and incessantly voicing a wish for peace. Those Social-Democrats who, together with the opportunists and Kautsky, think that a socialist programme consists in the propaganda of peace, will find proof of their error if they read The Economist. Their programme is not socialist, but bourgeois-pacifist. Dreams of peace, without propaganda of revolutionary action, express only a horror of war, but have nothing in common with socialism.
don't mind me, I'm just contact tracing the woke mind virus
I remember when the Economist would rail against this sort of reactionary conservatism, opting instead for neoliberalism. I guess when their main protagonist, capitalism, is looking so fucking shitty, this is the sorta thing they need to publish.
It's kind of a recent change. Even during the Bush era, they would mock the antics of reactionaries (although still recommending people vote for Republicans). I think they're just getting more in touch with the gestalt of the divorced dads and reactionary older "liberals" who make up their subscriber base.
Fundamentally, it's a rag started by the bourgeoisie in protest over tarrifs on grain. I don't think it ever was against reactionary beliefs, I think when they publish anything even slightly critical of the right it's for "balance" in the way American news does it. It's really funny because you see people comment on the articles saying "wow the ecommunist is woke"
If you watch the Jon Stewart interview of one of the lead editors of the paper, it's abundantly clear who the paper has always supported and their propaganda intentions.
It will always be this kind of low hanging fruit, so it's it's easy to get a laugh out of it.
Everytime someone describes what ''woke'' is, the definition is at best 60s civil right movement activism
It's either that or they define it as believing trans people are real

The numbers are larger today and the (now) billionaires are international, but nothing has fundamentally changed since Lenin wrote this over a century ago.
Contact tracing COVID infections
Contact tracing woke mind virus infectionSo, if "woke" is bad, asleep must be good. And Ignorance is Strength?
Some thoughts for the day from the
USAImperium:
++ An open mind is like a fortress with its gates unbarred and unguarded ++
++ Blessed is the mind too small for doubt ++
++ A small mind is easily filled with faith ++If the masses are ignorant, that is the strength of readers of the Economist. So basically yes
This article's thesis is that Canada, Australia, and Sweden are less racist than America
Oh shit, well I guess capital had better not stop to try to contain this "woke mind virus", and everything must continue as 'normal' while it spreads, right?
Just like the last virus, right?
Yeah I thought the new consensus was that viruses are natural and we should just let them rip, and doing anything to prevent their spread is tyrannical overreach
They're competing for the position of Quilette, an Ozzie libertarian rag...
