Is Wokeism The New Religion?

There are many terms and dogmas associated with, '' Wokeism,'' and I don't profess to completely understand them all.

Some of them are :-
Diversity, Integration, Equality, (D.I.E.)
Virtue Signalling.
Gaslignting.
Subconscious racism.
White privilege.
Victimhood.
Phobias of all colours and hues.
Intersectionality.
Mysogyny.
Homophobia.
Transphobia.

My simplistic understanding of all of the above, which is not exhaustive, is that the major problem, is the white, ''privileged,'' (whatever that means), male.

So, without me supplying more information, what do you think?
Has, ''Wokeism,'' become the new religion?

Pug - Your post signifies that you are very cowardly.
Anonymity certainly suits you.

It is my view that you are afraid of many things and 'God' is whom you fear most.

Think back over twelve months to the occasion you gave me Best Answer and what I said religion was doing to you.

Sorry, theland, only just seen it. //Positive discrimination, is racist.
We should be aspiring to equality of opportunity, not equality of outcome//

Yes, but you have it backwards. The only reason it was started in the first place, was because the biggest proportion of people in positions of authority, are (and always have been), white and male. And it seems, they tend to favour and recruit the same. It's 2020 and we have had centuries to even it out a little, but still haven't. You can see that, purely by the number of posts on AB about box-ticking if a black person gets a good job... it still isn't just seen as normal or fair.
The idea is to reduce discrimination overall.... and go by talent instead. And unfortunately, that seems to mean almost forcing employers to be fair, so everyone is represented, and gets more of a say on who else is recruited.
I think you are seeing it as "others" are "preferred", where the point is to stop them being automatically "less preferred".
//You can see that, purely by the number of posts on AB about box-ticking if a black person gets a good job... it still isn't just seen as normal or fair.//

And for those who deny it's existence, that is "White Male Privilege" to a tee. Something, through no fault of their own, white males will never have to endure.
Pixie, I can't see Theland agreeing, but that is completely deserving of BA. Eloquently and sincerely said.
Thank you, mozz x and I am not blaming any individual, of course.... it's just history really. People take it personally sometimes, when it really isn't.

Should we have then, the White Police Federation? The White Lawyers Federation? And, '' Whiteness,'' as a condition of membership of whatever? That is racist.

Oh dear, come on now.

I would hate to see a member of my multi racial family denied equality of opportunity on the basis of skin colour, that is racist and goes for both ethnicities of my family.
I would like to think we are all more robust than that.
No, it's the Billy Cotton Bandshow for the 21st century.
