Cults have names. So, what’s the name?

According to my dad, it's called wokeness.

It's an amorphous and undefinable term that vaguely means anything that challenges his authoritarian, theocratic ideals.

By not properly defining the enemy, it allows he and his buddies to direct their general rage at a common target that's compatible with anything that makes you mad and avoids accidentally engaging their critical thinking faculties.

Kind of like a cult in some ways.
