What's the species existential risk of runaway wokism? Some kinda non-heteronormative clathrate gun? 100+ km asteroids have rights too, and deserve citizenship and immigration to Earth?
But sometimes 'reality wins' by driving your nation, civilization, or species extinct. That's the danger or runaway wokism.https://twitter.com/EPoe187/status/1098204965712130054 …

Does reality always win? What about religion and mythology? People still believe in astrology, even flat earth is making a comeback.

Reality won during the Great Leap Forward, for example, at the cost of 30-40 million Chinese people or so.
