Woke Right kinda does mean "America First," just not the way most Americans who support that idea think of it. Woke Right means thinking and acting Woke about a nationalist, pseudo-traditionalist collectivist project. It's regular Woke upside-down.

Yes

The thought police are coming for criticism of Islam in New Jersey. Fresh off their big election victories in NJ, Democrats here just introduced Assembly Bill A1146, which creates a sweeping new state definition of “Islamophobia”. And it could land you in jail. Under the bill, “claims of a demographic threat posed by Muslims or of a Muslim takeover” are listed as examples of Islamophobia. So is “hostility and fear of Islam.” Pointing out that the Muslim population is growing (Pew projects it roughly doubling by 2050) or that classical Islamic doctrine calls for Muslim political supremacy over non-Muslims can now be treated as evidence of discriminatory intent. Bring up that many women are required to cover their hair and bodies? (Quran 24:31, 33:59) That can be framed as hostility toward Muslim culture. Point out that Muhammad married a six-year-old and consummated the marriage at nine? (Sahih Bukhari 3894, Sahih Muslim 1422) Stereotypical allegation. Cite the Quranic verses condemning homosexuality? (7:80-81 and related Lot passages) Rhetorical anti-Muslim manifestation. Mention that Jews and Christians were required to submit and pay the jizya tax? (Quran 9:29) Dehumanizing claim about Muslims as a group. The bill gives the state a broad new tool to treat factual criticism of Islamic texts, history, and demographics as proof of Islamophobic motive in existing discrimination cases, workplace investigations, schools, and bias-enhancement decisions. This is how it all starts. Prepare yourself for the same path the UK already took where Grandpas have been getting dragged out of their homes for social media posts.

On Victims of Communism Day, we remember the people communist regimes killed, imprisoned and forced from their homes. People have been imprisoned and murdered for speaking their minds or practicing their faith. Many families fled their home nations for an opportunity at a free life. That’s exactly why I sponsored educational truth on communism right here in Florida. We fight it now so our children never have to live it.

On Victims of Communism Day, we recognize the more than 100 million people who lost their lives at the hands of communists. Under the leadership of @GovRonDeSantis, we have ensured Florida students learn the truth about the devastating ideology of communism and the immense human suffering it has caused around the world. Today, we reaffirm our commitment to fostering a stronger appreciation for the freedoms, opportunities, and constitutional protections that define our American way of life.

🕯️ Today, November 7, we honor the millions who suffered and lost their lives under communist regimes. May we never forget those who fought for freedom and democracy. Liberty and human dignity must always be protected. 🕊️

Victims of Communism Day Today, we remember and honor the victims of communism.

Being Nov-7 [Day of the Great October Socialist Rev'n] falls on next Saturday, by FL law, 'Victims of Communism Day' will be observed w/ at least 45 min of instruction in schools on Fri, Nov-6. I am very interested in specific learning goals, content, & materials kids receive.

.@joerogan said something the other day, and man, he hit the nail right on the head. He was talking about how woke ideology isn’t just politics anymore. It’s replacing God on the Left, and it is creeping straight into Christian churches. And YOUR church can be a target. Just look at Talarico and his church. They preach their political agenda under the name of “Christianity” while questioning whether Christ even rose from the dead. This is Liberation Theology all over again. They couldn’t destroy the Church from the outside, so now they’re putting on Christian jerseys and trying to rewrite it from the inside.

Today, I accepted the resignation of Assistant Attorney General Harmeet Dhillon, who led the Civil Rights Division with conviction the past 18 months. She has defended the civil liberties of every American and enforced the law without fear or favor. The Department is grateful for her dedicated public service, and we wish her every success in her future endeavors.

FYI: DEI is still dead.

I did not turn off comments. I turned off comments for unverified accounts. There are too many bots. Hell, you're probably one yourself. If there were a setting available, I would turn off comments for all anonymous accounts. Anonymity on social media is destroying our country. It is a vector for foreign influence operations. It empowers the censorship and recrimination regime while pretending to protect people from it. It, like the One Ring, hides people from the very judgements they spew on others and encourages the most antisocial behaviors. And, candidly, I'm tired of being called a coward by people who won't even put their name on their own opinions.
