"...we _all_ knew about yesterday". After bemoaning how people are being lumped together and their ideas being expressed as though they were an amorphous mass, he goes on to do exactly the same thing when it suits _his_ agenda. He ties himself in knots several times during this interview.

@@MrReasonabubbleThat's not the same. He talks about _we_ as in all, everyone. The groups think he was discussing prior to that was assuming someone holds a particular view based on being lumped into a group of people who share an often immutable characteristic or interest. _All_ humans know what the sky is but we'd be asking questions if someone was stating its actually the ocean, vs a notion that all redheaded people must believe in the tooth fairy simply because of their hair colour.

That is absolutely right! They believe every other point of view is subjective, that there are only subjective points of view, except theirs. They believe that there is no such thing as truth except for there philosophy, which they give the status of absolute truth! Then they describe that contradiction as being an oxymoron! The only truth they acknowledge is relative truth and that can only be said in a very soft voice. That is why they are so accurately portrayed by the caricature of a spoilt child in a screaming fit. They are mad, deconstructive, unhinged, lunatics.

Woke, means to be politically conscious, politically aware, well informed, to well educated on injustices.

This is the bane of people who support burning dictionaries, hiding history, and other truths they're uncomfortable with.

The problem with stereotyping is that it's always done unconsciously. No one thinks they stereotype. Including you. Only "other people" ever stereotype....of course. And there ARE stereotypes, because most people are sheep and allow someone else to do their thinking and stereotyping for them. Of course they look down on 'stereotyping' as well, but only when those "other people" do it in a way that offends them personally.
