To a crowd of Tennessee's GOP faithful on Saturday, July 15, Florida Gov. and presidential candidate Ron DeSantis went to his greatest hits and boasted about his self-proclaimed battle against 'wokeness.'
“We’ve made the state of Florida the place where woke goes to die," DeSantis said. “And now, it is our mission as Americans to ensure that in January 2025 ... we leave woke ideology in the dustbin of history where it belongs.”
But woke ideology, plain and simple, is imaginary hatred that its critics can't even define. There is no culprit, only rabbit holes that lead to nowhere.
What should be in the dustbin of history are white supremacy and white nationalism. They promote the view that non-whites are inferior and are worthy of harm.
But yet some in our country choose to hold on to these dangerous ideologies.
