"woke" is thrown around a fair bit but it's tied in to popular social theories particularly in parts of academia such as critical race theory, identity politics, limitless genders, and the broader idea that western societies (although the most liveable and free in the world) are basically illegitimate, racist, awful places that have never atoned for sins of the past and current.

Yup, on the surface it's **** scary if all of it gets implemented

However its like an ambit claim what finally gets implemented may not reflect that but yeah a more "fluid*" decision making process in US government is all but certain.

Fluid may be interpreted as autocratic...

No different to CEDA or IPA in Australia and their musings
Let that be a lesson to you Port, no one beats the Bays five times in a row in a GF and gets away with it!!!

Trump assembling the greatest clown cabinet in history.

Not that the Dems can stop any of his nominations as the Republicans will hold the Senate and a simple majority is required to confirm the nominations, but all of them in Congress should just let Trump and his clowns do whatever they want in the next 4 years … and let the shit show unravel by natural means.

Trump should hire a man in his 60s pretending to be a woman and a creepy, non binary, luggage stealing, pet play fetishist to his cabinet, that would lend some real credibility.
