The Dictionary of Woke: How Orwellian Language Control And Group Think Are Destroying Western Societies
In these Orwellian times of language control and group think destroying free speech, rational thought and independent judgment it’s time to strike a blow for rationality and reason and defend what is best in Western civilisation.
Not a week goes by without yet another example of books being banned, ideas being censored, the past being rewritten, statues being demolished and authors and academics being vilified and publicly shamed. Now rebadged as being ‘woke’, political correctness represents an existential threat to Western societies including concepts like rationality and reason, freedom of expression and religious freedom. We have entered an Orwellian world like 1984 where Big Brother and the Party control how citizens think and where anyone who questions the thought police is victimised, punished and silenced.
The Dictionary of Woke contains 365 woke words and expressions with definitions, plus chapters on the dangers and origins of wokeness and what can be done to counter this language and mind control and group think.
From A is for Ableism and Alt-right to Z for Ze and Zie—this is the only dictionary you’ll need to navigate this Brave New World of political correctness and know all the words and terms to fight the woke invasion.
