“#Our brave new progressive world, from A to Woke<\/strong>”<\/p>\n

\n

In his woke instruction manual \u201c1984,\u201d author George Orwell wrote about how important it is to control the dictionary. The one who controls the language controls the past, present and future.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cDon\u2019t you see that the whole aim of News<\/a>peak is to narrow the range of thought? In the end we shall make thought-crime literally impossible, because there will be no words in which to express it,\u201d Orwell wrote.<\/em><\/p>\n

Thanks for the great idea, Mr. Orwell!\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

George Orwell might\u2019ve been on to something when he wrote about \u201cNewspeak.\u201d<\/figcaption>

To that end, the staff of satire site The Babylon Bee has put together a glossary of all the words you\u2019ll need to know if you want to sound smart while hanging out with your other woke friends.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

You\u2019ll find it in their new book, out next week, called \u201cThe Babylon Bee Guide to Wokeness.\u201d But you, lucky progressive, get an exclusive first look:\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

Abolitionism<\/strong> \u2014 The noble movement to remove all police protection from urban communities and replace it with unarmed antiracist interpretive dancers.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Ally<\/strong> \u2014 A straight white male who kills himself.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\"The
The best way to be an ally.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Antiracism<\/strong> \u2014 The act of judging everyone by skin color in order to defeat racism.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Antifascism<\/strong> \u2014 The act of beating people senseless with bike locks to defeat fascism.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\"Antifascism
Antifascism in action.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Canceling<\/strong> \u2014 The sacred ritual of shunning those who deny the doctrines of our righteous movement. Shun the nonbeliever!\u00a0<\/p>\n

\"The
The face of cancel culture.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Capitalism<\/strong> \u2014 A system in which people freely exchange goods and services. The evilest system that has ever been invented.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Cisgender<\/strong> \u2014 An unenlightened normie who identifies with their biological sex.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Cisgendered Hetero Patriarchonormative Whitemanspreading<\/strong> \u2014 What? No idea what this is. But it sounds terrible!\u00a0<\/p>\n

Climate Justice<\/strong> \u2014 The act of living in mud huts and eating bugs until the cancer of humanity is extinguished and Mother Gaia can live on. Also, any tax can be considered climate justice.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\"Delicious
Delicious bugs for dinner \u2014 again.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Colorblind <\/strong>\u2014 Adjective describing someone who doesn\u2019t see color or race. Just like the Nazis. This is supremely evil, since it turns a blind eye to the lived experience and daily reality of people of color, who all have the same monolithic lived experience and daily reality.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Communism<\/strong> \u2014 Basically, it\u2019s loving people and sharing with them, just like the Care Bears taught. It\u2019s the greatest system ever invented.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Critical Theory<\/strong> \u2014 The classification of all human interactions as some sort of power imbalance that must be remedied by dismantling systems of oppression until all meaningless sacks of meat and chemicals are the exact same and life is uninteresting, which will make it much easier for humans to just kill themselves, which is the ultimate goal here.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Cultural Relativism<\/strong> \u2014 The essential belief that all cultural ideas are equally valid and must never be compared to an objective moral standard. This belief must be held until the West is destroyed. Then we can stop believing it.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Deadname <\/strong>\u2014 When you erase a trans-body by referring to them by the name given to them at birth. This is basically the same as murder. If you do it by accident, it\u2019s just manslaughter, though.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Desegregation<\/strong> \u2014 The wicked act of invading black spaces with physical whiteness and white thinking.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Do Better<\/strong> \u2014 Believe the same things as me or things will be really bad for you. This is a warning.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Dog Whistle <\/strong>\u2014 A top-secret racism signal that signals all the racists to do the racism. Thousands of racists are standing by waiting to hear the dog whistle before they activate. Aryans, assemble!\u00a0<\/p>\n

\"Keep
Keep your ears open for dog whistles. They can be literally anything.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Empowerment<\/strong> \u2014 When someone does something the dominant culture considers really degrading, but all the good people say, \u201cYou go, girl!\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

Equity <\/strong>\u2014 When everything is fixed and everyone is happ<\/a>y and all the problems go away. Just give us power, and we\u2019ll give you equity!\u00a0<\/p>\n

Fascism <\/strong>\u2014 Anything that is not woke. Can be addressed with beating and shooting.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Fatphobia<\/strong> \u2014 The fear of big, beautiful cholesterol and diabetes.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\"Maybe
Maybe too many bugs for dinner.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Feminist <\/strong>\u2014 Someone who believes that men and women should be equal and men should also die.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Folx <\/strong>\u2014 The gender-neutral version of \u201cfolks,\u201d which was already gender-neutral to begin with. So it\u2019s DOUBLE gender-neutral! Wait, does that cancel it out? We need to rethink this one.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Gender <\/strong>\u2014 How DARE you!\u00a0<\/p>\n

Genocide <\/strong>\u2014 Any time a marginalized person\u2019s humanity is erased by someone not agreeing with them. Example: \u201cYour refusal to validate my personal experience is literal genocide.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

Hate Speech<\/strong> \u2014 Any speech that you disagree with, no matter how slightly.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\"Anything
Anything is Hate Speech if you hate the speech.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Heteronormativity<\/strong> \u2014 An oppressive environment induced by most people not being gay.\u00a0<\/p>\n

History <\/strong>\u2014 Systemic colonial-patriarchal propaganda that others BIPOC and minority gender-identity groups. Also, it\u2019s boring and there are a lot of guns, which we don\u2019t like.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Homophobe <\/strong>\u2014 Anyone who disagrees \u2014 no matter how slightly \u2014 with the LGBTQ community. Should be destroyed.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Institutional Racism<\/strong> \u2014 Racism is so powerful that it invisibly affects our institutions. Any time there is a disparity between different groups of people, that is always automatically proof of institutional racism.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Intersectionality<\/strong> \u2014 When you are a member of multiple oppressed groups at once, it MULTIPLIES your woke power. Welcome to intersectionality!\u00a0<\/p>\n

Internalized Oppression <\/strong>\u2014 When a woman makes a sandwich for her husband.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\"Oppressed
Oppressed and they don\u2019t even know it.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Double Internalized Oppression<\/strong> \u2014 When a black woman makes a sandwich for her white Republican husband.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Justice<\/strong> \u2014 When injustice is done in service to a marginalized group.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Liberation<\/strong> \u2014 The ultimate goal of wokeness. Can only be achieved through a Communist overthrow of Western capitalism. Yay!\u00a0<\/p>\n

\"Liberation
Liberation looks so fun and free.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Lived Experience<\/strong> \u2014 The final, ultimate and infallible source of all truth \u2014 as long as you are a member of an oppressed minority.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Male Tears<\/strong> \u2014 When you punch a stupid white male in the face and he cries due to his white male fragility.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Mansplaining<\/strong> \u2014 When a man \u2019splains something to a woman. This makes women feel bad for being so dumb. Not cool!\u00a0<\/p>\n

Manspreading<\/strong> \u2014 When a man sits with his knees apart instead of elegantly crossed like an elderly Jeff Goldblum. This act is no different than sexual assault.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\"A
A crime against humanity.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Marxism<\/strong> \u2014 The greatest philosophy ever invented. Some say it has resulted in mass death and famine, but that\u2019s only because true Marxism has never been tried.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Meritocracy <\/strong>\u2014 This is when people are allowed to rise and fall in a free society based on their talent and efforts. Meritocracy is racist because talent and effort are aspects of white culture and minorities shouldn\u2019t be forced to live in such a system.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Microaggressions<\/strong> \u2014 Aggressions so small you need to be very alert and observant in order to see them. The proper response to them is a macroaggressive punch to the face.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Misogynist<\/strong> \u2014 Another word for \u201cman.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

Narrative <\/strong>\u2014 The story we tell about reality, more real than reality itself. Surrender to the narrative!\u00a0<\/p>\n

Nazi<\/strong> \u2014 Someone who believes in liberty, free speech and small government, or anyone who dislikes Cardi B\u2019s music.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Objectivity <\/strong>\u2014 The act of being impartial, which is an oppressive characteristic of white thinking and a racist dog whistle.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Oppression <\/strong>\u2014 The act of disagreeing with wokeness while refusing to die. Example: \u201cYour very existence as a conservative white person is oppressing me.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

Patriarchy <\/strong>\u2014 An evil cabal of white men who got together and decided to have stronger muscles than women while making them have babies.\u00a0<\/p>\n

People of Color<\/strong> \u2014 Black and brown bodies who stand in solidarity with the struggle for Communist revolution. These are special people who need the assistance of white liberals to survive.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Problematic<\/strong> \u2014 Whatever we don\u2019t like today is problematic. This can change from day to day.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Queer<\/strong> \u2014 A gender identity you can pick when you\u2019re not actually L, G, B or T, but still want to be one of the cool, marginalized kids.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Racism<\/strong> \u2014 A system of racism established by racists to protect racism, which means racism can mean whatever we want it to mean. And if you disagree, you\u2019re a racist.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Rape<\/strong> \u2014 This used to mean forced sexual assault, but now it can mean doing anything remotely masculine, such as building a skyscraper, manspreading or disagreeing with a feminist.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Safe Space<\/strong> \u2014 A warm, moist, sheltered cocoon of safety where marginalized people can feel safe, kind of like a uterus.\u00a0<\/p>\n

SCIENCE<\/a><\/strong> \u2014 The grand, majestic deity that holds the world together, whose TRUTH is administered by a priesthood of infallible scientists, and whose precepts we will follow with the faith of a child. BLESSED BE THE NAME OF SCIENCE.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\"All
All hail Science!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Segregation<\/strong> \u2014 The noble and anti-racist practice of segregating black and brown bodies from their white oppressors to create spaces where whiteness cannot encroach.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Shaming <\/strong>\u2014 An evil act where you try to make someone feel bad for something they did that was bad.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Social<\/a>ism <\/strong>\u2014 Diet communism with lime.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Systemic<\/strong> \u2014 A magic word that makes any kind of oppression sound much worse. Racism? Meh. Systemic racism? Scary!\u00a0<\/p>\n

Tokenism <\/strong>\u2014 When you shove an LGBTQ+ or POC character into your Netflix show just to get points on social media. So, like, every Netflix show ever made.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Tolkienism<\/strong> \u2014 When you shove a 3,000-year-old elf into your Netflix show.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Trans <\/strong>\u2014 The bravest members of the LGBTQ community and the current favorites, until something cooler comes along.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Transracial Neurodivergent Kinkableism<\/strong> \u2014 No idea what this is, but it sounds really bad.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Truth<\/strong> \u2014 An ancient myth from way back in the year 2019. People used to think there were \u201cfacts\u201d we could all agree on. But no longer.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Victim <\/strong>\u2014 You. Me. Everyone. Except white people.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Violence<\/strong> \u2014 Speech.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Whiteness <\/strong>\u2014 The original sin, first exhibited by Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden. When Eve took a bite of that fruit, that was whiteness manifesting itself.\u00a0<\/p>\n

White Fragility<\/strong> \u2014 If you call someone a racist and they go, \u201cHey, what? I\u2019m not a racist!,\u201d that\u2019s a clear example of white fragility.\u00a0<\/p>\n

White Supremacy<\/strong> \u2014 Literally everything. Just look around yourself \u2014 everything you see is white supremacy. Pencil. Keyboard. Coffee cup. Brownies. All white supremacy.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Whitesplaining<\/strong> \u2014 When white people try to explain to you the appeal of ranch dressing, Starbucks and The Killers.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Woke<\/strong> \u2014 The good guys. One who has woken up to the plight of the oppressed and done something about it by posting virtue signals on Instagram.\n <\/div>\n
