Anyone who uses the term 'woke right' is outing themselves as some recent leftist-turned-centrist who wants to gate-keep and box out authentic conservative voices, similar to how William F. Buckley did during his time at National Review. Since the term term "woke" is unpopular at the moment, they use that label to tarnish their competition. In practice, it ends up being clumsy, confusing, and less effective than if they just called the conservatives they didn't like "nazis" all along.

Ironically, that’s a decent description of the woke right themselves.
Yes, I realize you’re upset that your former leftist patrons threw you under the bus and no longer give you THE GIBBS. Too bad. No, we’re not interested in giving you the same deal you had with the left.
Beyond the fact that this Lindsay character has long displayed the only sure sign of being a golem of the liberal consensus (he has, namely, blocked me on Twitter), and that I, being an outsider and thus seeing it from without, am more inclined to lend an ear to Hofstadter's point that anti-urban paranoia is indeed a defining characteristic of American conservatism (only exceptionally pronounced in American conservatism, I should say, as I recognise it readily in European conservatism as well), an ear which I lend without incautiously foregoing the recognition of the... let us say suspect nature and context of his work, I feel a label such as "woke" is far too dull to wound at this point. What does "woke" amount to as a weapon? It seems meekly deployed for the benefit of an internal audience. That "fascists" need to be tarred with the brush of "woke" is more illustrative of how badly the left wore out the "fascist" label than it is anything new in the realm of intra-right tendencies. It is mere grasping, and "woke" is weak. No one will remember its name.

You're Jewish. Shut your fucking mouth Jewgene, you are a leftist Jew.
You really need to get some new material.
No, you need to fuck off back to Jew York or Tel Aviv because you're Fucking Jewish, Jewgene! There is no Woke Right; you're just Fucking Jewish.

>the right needs to adopt the left's tactics if it wants to win
>don't worry there's no woke right
The epistemological cartoon rolls on.
Lol, James Lindsay is a fat Jew.
James Lindsay is a drunken Jew.
