The Rise of Wokeness and Modern Liberalism

The chapter explores how modern liberals have contributed to societal issues, focusing on the fusion of liberal and left ideas leading to radical egalitarianism. It delves into the spread of 'woke' ideology driven by a rule to not be outflanked on sympathy for marginalized groups, pushing towards radicalism.
