https://countercurrents.org/2024/02/why-hindutva-is-worried-about-woke-people-or-wokeism/ The attack of ‘wokeism’ on independent thinking and progressive politics also very much gels with the overall modus operandi of RSS, BJP and other affiliated organisations. Organisations whose longtime project is carving out a Hindu Rashtra out of a formal secular, democratic, socialist and sovereign India. The manner in which routinely such liberal spaces or intellectuals are castigaged as ‘Khan Market gang’ or the way Hindutva has unleashed an organised, systematic and conscious attack on educational institutions – who still valued independent thinking – can be considered a mere detail in this overall pattern of domesticating the thinking people of the country. One can also say that with growing discrediting of the whole idea of ‘tukdetukde gang’ or ‘urban naxals’ (https://www.newsclick.in/in-search-tukde-tukde-gang) invented and popularised by the Hindutva cheerleaders – which was conveniently used against all dissenting voices, perhaps the idea of ‘wokeism’ or ‘woke people’ can serve them similar purpose for them.

the book ‘Snakes in India : Breaking India 2:0. by Rajiv Malhotra( Blueink) discussed ‘‘intense warfare against India’s integrity is the work of a well-orchestrated global machinery driven by a new ideology’. https://www.firstpost.com/india/snakes-in-the-ganga-rajiv-malhotra-vijaya-viswanathans-book-on-uncomfortable-truths-about-indias-vulnerabilities-11337501.html  ) and also talked about how “wokeism has penetrated some of the Indian government’s policies. For instance, the National Education Policy 2020 is propagating Harvard’s liberal arts.”

Why Hindutva Is Worried About “Woke People” or “Wokeism”? 28/02/2024 subhash gatade https://kafila.online/2024/02/28/why-hindutva-is-worried-about-woke-people-or-wokeism/  BJYM’s sudden waking up on the challenge of ‘wokeism’ is not difficult to understand. It could be easily traced to Sangh Supremo Mohan Bhagwat’s exhortation in his Vijayadashmi Speech – few months back – wherein he had castigated ‘cultural marxists’ and ‘woke people’.

Summary of “Woke, Inc.: Inside Corporate America’s Social Justice Scam” by Vivek Ramaswamy Andrew Adams  ht tps://medium.com/@heinspiredme/summary-of-woke-inc-inside-corporate-americas-social-justice-scam-by-vivek-ramaswamy-b3351941d025In his book, Vivek Ramaswamy argues that corporate America has become increasingly “woke” in recent years, and that this is a dangerous trend. He believes that wokeness is a form of “corporate social justice” that is used by corporations to virtue signal and to avoid criticism. He argues that wokeness is not actually about social justice, but is instead about profit.

Ramaswamy also argues that wokeness is not actually about social justice, but is instead about profit. He believes that corporations adopt woke policies because they believe that it will make them more money. He argues that this is a cynical and manipulative approach to social justice, and that it ultimately does more harm than good.

Ramaswamy concludes by arguing that we need to reject wokeness and return to a more traditional approach to social justice. He believes that we should focus on individual rights and on creating a more just and equitable society for everyone. He argues that we should not allow corporations to use wokeness as a way to exploit people and to avoid criticism.
