Okay, so last night we talked about, just kind of dive in, we just talked about last night,

woke on the left and the right in the 20th century and of course 20th century

after I did a lot of throat clearing. I just really mean the modern era and it is arguable that something has changed since the 1960s. So the 20th century

outside of China which had a slight delay according to the reckoning I'm using 20th century outside of China, which had a slight delay, according to the reckoning I'm using,

20th century goes up until about 1960, maybe to 1980 or thereabouts, and then we enter into the 21st century.

I'm not being literal about the time. What I mean is actually this modern era, and we could call the era that we're in now postmodern, but we talked about

how woke arose on left and right in the earlier context. And of course, I nodded that there's

woke earlier than that. I'll revisit just a little bit, but not too much. What was woke,

it is a socio-nostic. That's the word I didn't want to have to use,

awakening that turns a sense of alienation into class identity, with this desire to overthrow

the system and liberate man from all the evils and offals of the world.

So what is woke left? Well, it's doing that with a left-wing,

radically egalitarian vision for society, inequity regime. It's anti-traditionalist. And what is

woke right? It is a reaction to those provocations that wants to do it with a highly ordered,

rigid hierarchical system that I claim could be called traditionalist,

but is actually probably pseudo-traditionalist, falsely traditionalist instead.

So you have a kind of universalism on the left and a kind of tribalism on the right that are kind of the hallmarks.

Now, there have kind of in these three big changes, these kind of three big changes that

shift us from the 20th century or the modernist, 19th and 20th century modernist conception into what I'm calling a 21st century model.

And those three big changes, I have a slide, for that, are the transition from modernism to post-modernism,

the evolution of Western Marxism to identity Marxism, or what we might call American Maoism,

and the development of what we call the China model or the stakeholder system.
