The folk tale of Little Red Riding Hood teaches us a timeless lesson: sometimes infirm, and seemingly harmless, familial figures like grandma are, in fact, wolves in disguise. And the cultural wolf that is, by far, the most fearsome in today’s world is wokeism.

Rarely defined with any precision, many social commentators describe wokeism as the modern secular religion of today’s western elites. It is, beyond any shadow of a doubt, a fundamentalist one. Whereas reasonable conversations can be had over its various topics, when the woke banner is unfurled, there is no longer room for debate, and those who dare to question its precepts risk modern-day witch-burning in the form of job loss and social ostracism.
