Product description:
In Woke, Titania McGrath demonstrates how everybody can play their part in the pursuit of social justice. As a millennial icon on the forefront of online activism (i.e. having written numerous angry tweets), Titania is uniquely placed to guide her readers through the often bewildering array of terminology and concepts that constitute twenty-first-century 'wokeness'. These new ideas often leave the general public bemused, particularly if they don't read the Guardian.
Being woke is actually much easier than people think. As Titania demonstrates, anyone can be an activist. By simply adding a rainbow flag to your Facebook profile, or calling out an elderly person who doesn't understand what 'non-binary' means, you can change the world for the better. Indeed, social media has now made it possible to show how virtuous you are without having to do anything at all.
Timely and indispensable, Titania's step-by-step guide will help you to become the woke person you need to be in an increasingly progressive world. In a non-patronising manner, Titania will explain why you are wrong about everything and how to become more like her.

I would suggest reading Nobel laureate Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn to get a feel for how life would be under a regime dedicate to "social justice." Sadly, our millennials are as blind to reality as were our New Deal academics who worshiped Stalin in the 30's and 40's or are boomer elites who believed in the myth of Mao in the 60's and 60's.
greatest minds in history have to say. And for the record, the New Deal saved Capitalism. Even an idiot could figure this much out.
But that's beside the point. Modern progressivism wants to take us far beyond the New Deal. Your models are in Venezuela, Cuba, the Soviet Union. and Mao's China. They all tried to achieve "social justice" by brutally repressing human freedom. Based on the PC extremism on our university campuses, those totalitarian impulses are very much alive in this country today.

have more in common with each other than with the rest of the world.
The shame is that so called moderate politicians in either party are gutless. I really believe that an independent moderate could make a serious challenge this time... if he or she were blunt!
