Wokeism is often an expression of pain and frustration experienced by the millennial generation. This generation grew up following a formula for success that ultimately failed them, leading to a sense of disillusionment and a feeling of being unable to attain their goals. Wokeism can be seen as a response to this, as it provides a way for individuals to align themselves with the underdog and gain a sense of power and self-esteem. The focus on identifying as a victim and seeking to be a hero has led to a polarization of society and a lack of open dialogue. While there may be valid concerns and issues at the core of wokeism, the approach taken often hinders genuine progress and understanding.
