Anti-anti-woke
Anti-anti-woke refers to a critical stance towards both mainstream "woke" culture and especially its reactionary "anti-woke" opponents, in favor of an actually radical and transformative approach to social justice, wherein the ultimate goal is to establish social freedom by dismantling structures of domination.
Person A: "Ugh, I'm so sick of these woke liberals pushing their agenda on everyone."
Person B: "Yeah seriously, what we need is an anti-anti-woke stance to actually fight for mutual freedom."
Person A: "What's that supposed to mean?"
Person B: "It means rejecting the benign liberal co-optation of 'woke' and challenging the vicious 'anti-woke' stance by focusing on deconstructing structures of domination. Those cruel anti-woke bastards on the far-right are gaining fascist traction by doubling down on vicious social hierarchies and liberals are too busy virtue signaling to do anything substantive about it. We need to take real action and attack the roots of unfreedom, not engage in useless debates and appeals to the state."
