You have to be a tabula rasa, nurture absolutist to sign on to the full menu of woke dementedness. This reminds me of the Lindsay, Pluckrose, Boghossian scholarly hoax articles.
Treating that article seriously as an argument from the woke left is analogous to treating Mark Meechan's pug as a spokesman for conservatism, and makes the person doing it look just as clever.
P.S
I wrote the above after reading the posted extract, but decided to check out the link before hitting post. I honestly can't tell if the entire site, which is 3 weeks old and hosts 4 articles, all of this very edge case 'is it fuckery or serious?' type, is an earnest attempt at journo-blogging by some idiot gender studies grads, or just broad satire. My guess would be it's some kind of 4chan-style deep troll, because all of the comments on the article are along the theme of the top voted comment by 'Digger Nick' which reads 'shut up, whore'.
Who the butt of the joke is meant to be, exactly, is lost on me at this point. It certainly makes that ultra woke brand of progressivism look dumb and dangerous, but it also succeeds in making anybody who takes it seriously for even a second look like a fucking moron.
I think anybody that reads or disseminates that article in any context has immediately volunteered to be part of the problem, though, which now includes me. Thanks Rip, is my head out of my ass yet?
