A “spectre” is haunting the American Right: the spectre of the Woke Right! Increasingly, people are recognizing it to be a rising power and a rising problem; everyone except the Woke Right themselves, of course. The denialism of the Woke Right about their own Wokeness isn’t just ridiculous; it’s also usually pretty hilarious to read. In this episode of James Lindsay OnlySubs, my subscribers-only podcast, I take you, dear New Discourses contributor, through another exciting episode of reading the Woke Right in their own words with lots of commentary. In this episode, I present an essay by Jeremy Carl, senior fellow at the Claremont Institute, that I’ve been saving for months. He wrote it as a reaction to my famous “Marcus Carlson” (or Communist Manifesto) hoax on American Reformer back in December 2024, making it even funnier now. Join me to explore this ridiculous piece of Woke Right denialism.
