It’s Complicated
I wish I had a dollar for every conversation I’ve had in which I pointed out that “I think it’s a bit more complicated than that.”
IMO, a vital part of wokeness is the realization that the world around us is not black and white.
If you take a minute and examine any of the issues that plague us as a nation, you’ll see this very concept at play.
Here’s an example: illegal immigration. If you’re a Trump supporter, you may believe that the cause is that Biden is part of the “radical left” and has “opened our borders.”
If you’re able to actually think, however, you’re able to consider the socio-economic conditions that are causing this problem, what the United States can and cannot do vis-a-vis international law, what these people are doing once they get here, who in politics and Congress impedes our finding a solution, etc.
