The gradual, yet persistent, process of stripping some
society of its basic freedoms, such as: speech, expression, association, and assembly through the
woke and/or
PC cultures till it effectively becomes a new version of Saudi Arabia. Then we can say:
society X has been successfully "saudized".
The process begins when self-righteous psychopaths (similar to the Saudi religious
police or the Saudi gov electronic
army of trolls and bots) attempt to enforce their moral views on
society by killing, jailing, "cancelling", and ruining the professional lives of anyone who disagrees with their ultra-superior infallible views. These original actors suffer from a moral superiority complex, but are usually powerless in subjugating the whole of
society to one monolithic view. Gradually however, they gain power through well-intended morons who are lured by the promise of ending butt-hurt-
ness from the world, thus, de facto, creating heaven on Earth. These pseudo armies of morons enthusiastically utilize the weapons of mass-runaway-virtue-signaling to find any: word, sentence, action, laugh, smile, or body movement (voluntary or not) that could have the probability of the possibility of the likelihood of being interpreted in some unfavorable way. Once a victim is found (usually online), hell breaks
loose and some unquantifiable amounts of a hatred-victimhood mix is deployed to make the perpetrator "pay" for daring to deviate from the righteous orthodoxy.
Person A: 32% of Americans fear that speaking candidly can cost them their job (Cato/Economist
2020).
Fear peaks among the highly educated, who run parties, mass media, corporations, academia.
Society expects the educated to solve big problems. Without honest debates, they just can’t.
Person B: Looks like America is well under its way of getting saudized!
