The rise of "I was never woke" types - "I swear I was always based and redpilled!"

So I been noticing that ever since Trump won again a lot and a mean A LOT of people are now pretending they always hated wokeism, that they were always anti-woke and that they never every supported woke shit.

I was hearing an interview with internet bald guy Marc Andressen where he went on a loooong tirade against wokeness and some autistic-tier rant about some book about indo-europeans being totally trad, yadda yadda, when I noticed it. I remember very well when bay area tech was one of the first places to go woke all the way back in 2011 or even earlier, and from there it would spread everywhere. If you search a little you find that baldy was a total big government, more taxes, money for 'dem programs shill from Clinton to Obama. Of course he now says that he has changed since 2016 but I don't recall him being very antiwoke before what, 6 months ago? a year? not 9 years ago. He says one of his breaking points was when he was forced to diversify the boards of the companies he was in, so basically it was all cool until it became a problem for him, he had no issues with wokes fucking things up for the rest of us tho.

I did notice that tech went very anti-woke after two events: first when Biden instead of thanking them for basically burying Trump in the 2020 election sent the DOJ to start breaking up big tech, probably one of the few good ideas he had but most likely the byproduct of seeing how big tech have become the real power that can decide an election. Then was the 10/7 boogaloo when tons of mostly jew but also some non-jew but still zionist billionaires realized all those lefties they been bankrolling for decades do see israel as a white supremacist ethnostate and the palestinians living under apartheid, and they really really unironically hate jews. Again they had no problem when wokes were shitting on anyone who was remotely with and cheering every time a muslim went truck of peace in Europe, only when it happened to their people.

Suddenly its all "woke bad" and "left bad", all the money dries up, and tons of people who were into it are pretending this shit never happened. I recall old people (silent gen) telling me a lot of people who were 100% Red suddenly went "I was never a commie" back in the 50's and 60's, but they totally were into that before and during WWII, they only changed their minds when it was no longer cool and could take opportunities away from you rather than open doors.

So has anyone else noticed this?

This is why archiving is important. I wish there'd be a directory of celebs and such that supported the castration and abuse of children with their own words as proof. JK Rowling said it well.

I remember there was a post by Mundane Matt that he made on twitter a couple days after the Jim vs Ralph stream where he was talking about how sorry he was for harming the left for starting gamergate or something. Has he said anything about always being a based and redpilled gigachad who actually stuck it to the uncool woke liberals since 2013 or something yet?

Maybe that's wrong of me.

Disagree. People who disclose past positions and will confidently and candidly disclose why they changed positions deserve more trust, not less.

Clarified in edit: I mean to say that I disagree with the idea that it is wrong of you.

On the Internet? Yes, absolutely. Grifters are moving onto a new grift as you're dominant in the establishment now.

In real life, however, I noticed the exact opposite trend. Expressing any support for right wing causes and especially Trump is more unacceptable than it was before. Mind you, I've become more left wing myself over the past two years so I might just not interact enough with right wingers.

Well most people in their 30s would have had Obama/McCain or Obama/Romney as their first election so it's not like that would be uncommon to have them flip during the 2016 Trump election.

I remember being all pumped for Rick Santorum, I was one of the 3 seniors in my class that was old enough to vote in 2012.
I don't remember why, I just remember learning he was a weird ass dude after he had dropped out.
 
@cybertoaster : to be honest, I've noticed the people ditching it, it I've been absolutely caught up in people saying "I was wrong and you were right" and basically frothing at the gash over that.

I've been pretty outspoken over my views for a long time and it feels incredible to be told by people who were offended on a personal level someone disagreed with them that they think I was right and they were a dick.

As an aside though it's also nice to reconnect with people. It takes balls to apologize. I respect that.

It's probably true. Most people aren't woke. The woke tards were just a minority and usually just found online. Take niggers for example. They vote for Democrats overwhelmingly. Do you think your average ghetto nigger really gave a shit about trannies and pronouns? Fuck no. They only cared about their own shit.

People to liking wokism are like the people in North Korea who worship the Kim family. I would guess very few actually believe in it, they just know there are severe consequences if you are perceived as being even slightly receptive to the wrong ideas. When people start feeling like they have the right to say their true feelings again, something as unpopular as woke will have a lot of people trashing it. This will also attract a large number crowd followers jumping onto the next popular thing, even if their social media was filled with woke stuff before November of last year. If it was simply someone who put a rainbow flag on their Twitter profile in June or a black square in February, they can probably be forgiven, but there needs to be some kind of reckoning for people who advocated for butchering children or burning down cities.

Not wrong at all. Often recent converts to a belief system are the most honest and zealous. Also, when it comes to your party affiliation, or who you voted for, it's meaningless if it's more than 3 elections ago given how much those things change. I voted for Trump for the same reason I voted for Obama (in 08 only), which was the promise to end the forever wars or at least not give us any new ones that Obama totally broke and Trump sort of delivered on. The people who don't deserve your trust are the party faithful who start trying to justify things they once protested, like the Democrat who suddenly liked blowing up people on the other side of the world just because their guy was doing it.

A lot of these types are coming out of the woodwork as a result of Goonergate with the most notable example being Melonie Mac.

Nah, she turned a man gay. Once you reach that level of cunt you will sperg out in some spectacular way. So I think at a base level she hates fags cause she hates herself, but not enough to do anything. The rest is just grift like everyone else.

Honestly from personal experience the Trumpocaust and the TTD backlash is being met with quiet silence by my sane left leaning acquaintances and families. If the discussion sways into the TTD territory they just quietly nod and wait for it to change back. I never maintained contact with the full on schizo leftoids that would burn bridges over this but it seems the moderates are just eating crow for a little while.

It should be used against grifters and politicians, doing it against normies would just doing the same mistake over again.

These poisonous ideologies would never stick if normies would reject them from the start.
We need to shame these people so hard that any future generation will be too scared to do what they did.
