    The right is devoid of culture

    They don’t create they destroy

    What they have, they stole

    The term “woke,” meaning to be aware and attentive, especially to issues of racial and social justice, has a rich history in Black culture. Its origins can be traced back to the early 20th century when “stay woke” was used as an in-group signal for Black people to be aware of systems that harm them. This phrase gained further traction with musicians.

    Almost none of their ‘culture’ is original. I’m struggling to think of a single part that is, whether NSDAP or neo-nazis.

    • skinheads: nope (imitating of the punk movement, SHARPs are still beating up neo-Nazis)
    • fashwave: nope (shallow copy-paste of vaporwave-inspired techniques)
    • ‘based’/Pepe/Wojak: nope (even on 4chan, none of these originated from the /pol/ board or political discussions)
    • NSBM: nope (BM)
    • roman/viking/etc. roleplay: nope (Nazi Germans copying Roman culture is kinda funny when you think about it)
    • Nazi ideology/neo-Nazi ideology: nope (both are a syncretic mess of other ideology’s conclusions, as a result there’s no consistent worldview capable of long-term success)
    • “National Socialism”: nope (name borrowed from an Austrian party[1], named to try and appeal to a wider audience by borrowing ‘left-wing’ and ‘right-wing’ symbolism. In fact, Hitler was in favour of a different name to try and distance from socialism)

    I really can’t think of anything.

    It’s not coincidence. They know. The right is forever lifting and co-opting from the identities they oppress. Compelling art depends on a compelling idea. They have few compelling ideas, so they steal the compelling art.

    How about “woke”? Surely the word “woke” in it’s current context was first introduced into popular culture by a white cishet christian man right?
