Enlist now …

… The Culture War Must Go On - WSJ. (Hat tip, Dave Lull.)

Those journalists and intellectuals who haven’t gone woke need to be encouraged and reminded that they are not alone. Argument and humor must be regularly deployed against the absurdity of woke language and slogans. Diversity, inclusion and equity—put them all together, they spell DIE, and death to much that is best in American life they bode.


Try telling the woke that the official name of the Nazi Party was the National Socialist German Workers' Party. Since they tend to be sympathetic to socialism, they claim that the Nazis were not really socialist, but just appropriated the name. Which didn't stop Hitler from giving speeches extolling the virtues of socialism. (He thought his brand was the antidote to bolshevism, though the the full name of the Soviet Union, of course,  was the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics. Go figure.)
