I've been saying this for a long time. Social psychologist Jonathan Haidt argues that we all have a God-shaped hole in our heart, and everyone fills it with something. Wokeness has all the trappings of a religion, complete with original sin, dogma that can't be questioned, and punishment of heretics. The key thing it lacks is forgiveness.

I'm done with calling wokeness an ideology or political position. Conservatism and liberalism are political positions mainly based on economics and the role of the government. Wokeness isn't. It's a fucking religion. White privilege is original sin, cancel culture is "purging the heretics", White Fragility is the Bible, Twitter is the cathedral, gender studies is the seminary, Anita Sarkeesian is the Pope, George Floyd is Jesus, the big corporations are the Vatican, and "faith, hope and charity" has been usurped by "diversity, inclusion and equity."
