Why Are Republicans Obsessed With “Woke” Corporations? | The Class Room With Olúfẹ́mi O. Táíwò

In the last few years, Republicans have been increasingly concerned about a “woke” corporate agenda, but they're missing the real problem. It’s not that corporations and establishment politicians care too much about racial or gender justice. The problem is they pretend to care about racism or misogyny to defend their wealth and power. And that's what we should be worried about: The amount of power that corporate elites have over working people."

Interesting question. Perhaps making up a *new* word for a term that has already been defined thoroughly by history and the dictionary allows just enough *confusion* over it's meaning to add to the gridlock in today's politics. Adding to the gridlock in the Senate in D.C. by further dividing decent, average American Citizens into smaller and smaller groups in this fashion puts all the power into the pockets of the Amerikan Oligarchs whose political bribery is engineering and has engineered the downfall of American Democracy since the 1980's. Don't forget that it was our own Supreme Court who *invented* and *legalized* Dark Money Bribery through their 2010 Citizens United Decision. It only took six years of anonymous and unlimited amounts of money from domestic *and* foreign sources being funneled into America's elections and politics to produce tRump.

Everyone should be concerned with woke corporations and woke politicians for the same reason: it allows a group, in this case corporations and politicians, to appeal to society at large as if they are an ally when the reality is they will do everything in their power to fight meaningful change. Corporations will sell you rainbow products and put a rainbow background up on their social media platforms, but will they stop fighting unions? Will they better support workers rights in any meaningful way? The answer is no. Will politicians wear African garb and knell at protests? Absolutely. But, will they make any meaningful changes to the law that would support black Americans or really any people of color? No. These entities use woke culture as a marketing ploy and by and large it has worked. Some of us want meaningful changes though and see through the bullshit they are trying to spoon feed us.

In that case, the channel Second Thought has a lot of videos about socialist economics, how it would work, and why people would still be incentivized to work. I can say though, coming from a country with heavily regulated capitalism through socialist policies(so not even fully socialist) that we have no homeless people, health care is free or inexpensive, unions negotiate the pay of their workers, our infrastructure is regularly maintained, and all education is free, and you're getting paid during so you can afford rent and food. We've also taken in a lot of refugees over the years, and generally don't have big exports to keep national wealth high to allow all these things, it's just a country where workers have a lot more say and there are barely any hyper rich billionaires, and those we have must pay their taxes. It's not perfect and some people are pushing for deregulations, but it's far better than pure capitalism like the US has.
