Exploring the Social Imagination

A 'Warped' Social Imagination... Woke is a Not Nice SubCulture!


They are 'free' in 'their' social imagination... just as free as every other reprobate in the reprobate social imagination. 

While riding my bike, I saw a woman with purple hair (not the first time either) and her purple hair was not even nicely kept or styled but rather raggedy, and or pooch sloppy. These types are often flip flop wearing creatures or else in black tutus and Doc Martins. Such people they say they are 'woke'. Nope, they have been hypnotized into thinking they are. They are simply an animal... self-centered, self-righteous butt sniffing self-serving hippies.

If anything, they paint their hair purple or blue or pink or green, wear rings in their noses, get painted with tattoos all over themselves and extort vile utterances. They will crap in their own nest if their 'woke' neighbor does it. You see, they only copy what they think is the politically correct attitude/behavior/in-group... and that's not new to society. 

There has always been a certain amount of copying of others to get an advantage, even a hand out or the legal woke right to be a lazy, dumb slob. As I understand... its an 'E' subculture. One has to wonder who made them that way or did they grow up out of the subculture corn?

The subculture social imagination has never benefited wider 'stable' social imagination known as functioning society. Subcultures are not nice people. They are not nice in their appearance, nor in their thinking nor in their behavior. They eat junk food, they sleep on floors, they let their dog off leash to shit and pee and then jump on you. 

They let their kids run wild in the grocery store, they turn their music up extremely loud as if you want to hear it. They turn on their yard lights and cause you to purchase blackout blinds. They are not nice... so why does Russel Brand go on about "if only we could all just be nice". I am sure he realizes that 'nice' is relative. 

A wise sociologist recognizes that a subculture will actively work against the norm. This is a counter-culture, so called because it runs counter to the dominant culture. Now for some that sounds likes its mean. But remember, the dominant culture is so because what they do in a place, and have been doing in a place over time, has been working and sustaining them... hence - dominant.

When I was teaching, I asked my 'college' woke students what it means to be nice and how to make the world nice. And, all they could say was 'just be nice'. So, I pressed them asking what does nice mean to you? Do you take care of your property? Do you want others to do the same? Do you think hygiene is good and modesty? Do you obey rules and policy and pay taxes? Do you read, do you even think for yourself? Do you look for value in your purchases? Do you say thank you and you're welcome? Do you ever think what you are doing is not nice?

Their eyes just glazed over in their state of WOKE! 



Now, to be fair... you don't have to look like that to be like that. I have plenty of neighbors who have over the years gone out for the mail or newspaper or amazon delivery in their just 'got out of bed' underwear/boxers or otherwise. 

People who have let their dog out at night to take a dump on the sidewalk or parkway and not feel obligated to clean it up. People who have left their garbage cans in the street after pickup, or parked an old vehicle or boat or camper in their driveway for more than an year.

People who have left loud music on until the wee hours, people who don't mow their grass, or paint their fence. People who let their kids run around like Indians, screaming and yelling as if they are being murdered. People who burn garbage that smells like old tires in their backyard (in mid-to upper middle class neighborhoods)... who knows why. 

People are not nice. And, how can you make them nice? You can't. Its the residue of this fallen world. If you heap laws on them, you heap laws on yourself until no one is free but under constant surveillance. Are we heading that way? I think so...

 

There is nothing new under the sun and so, you can put lipstick on a pig... Why? Because, all have fallen short of the Glory of God!
