Discourse seems futile when we are no longer a people with shared principles or even a shared understanding of reality. What seems obvious to one person is patently absurd to the next. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e This collapse of meaning is not accidental. It has been plotted and documented for decades, and now presents in its current form as Woke ideology. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eA\u003c\/i\u003e\u003ci\u003ewake, Not Woke\u003c\/i\u003e unmasks this ideology by examining its history, major players, premises, and tactics, showing us that \"Wokeness\" at its core is an ideology of rupture. Indeed, it is an ideology with fundamentalist and even cult-like characteristics that is on a collision course with Christianity. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e With a wit and clarity that both exposes the absurd and mourns the brokenness of our culture, \u003cbr\u003e Noelle Mering provides answers to such questions as: \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWhy does tolerance seem to only go in one direction?\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHow does the ideology create enemies, eroding friendship across the sexes and races?\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWhy is violence the natural end of Woke ideology?\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWhy are the Woke considered blameless?\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWhy have politics become all-absorbing?\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWhy is the corruption of children a logical outgrowth of Woke principles?\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHow is the movement fundamentally a rejection of the Logos?\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cbr\u003e This is a spiritual battle, and it is not accidental. The architects of revolution have long known that the transformation of the West had to come by way of destabilizing the social, familial, and religious pieties of a citizenry. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e But there is a road to restoration, and it begins with identifying and understanding the operating principles of the Woke movement. While the revolution is a counterfeit religion resulting in alienation and division, the One True Faith brings restoration. It is this restoration -- of the person, the family, and the Faith -- for which we all hunger and is the most fitting avenue toward a more harmonious and whole society\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNoelle Mering is a Fellow at the Washington DC-based think tank the Ethics and Public Policy Center.
