Far-left is having some affinity groups at work, hiring people who happen to be queer, and being inclusive to people with disabilities?

The right is deranged with intolerance. All the talk about "free speech" and they can't stand that someone might not think or act like them.

The "anti-woke" crusaders are honestly more unbearable than any social justice warrior type I've met because they will not shut up about it and it colors their whole life.

It's just another flavor of identity politics with in and out groups.

I'm the complete opposite. Swap "anti-woke" with "social justice warrior" and you have my experience across multiple years, both inside and outside of companies.

As far as I can tell all these groups never shut up and it colors their entire life. Far left and far right is just a circle, the join at the same extreme.

What we need is a center. Just stuff that makes sense. The problem is our "sense" has been under attack we've basically collectively lost it.
