>>724987woke moralism is good, and it is a bottom-up phenomenon. the fact that companies responded to bottom up demands with the weakest and most tokenistic concessions possible (which were then withdrawn following a reactionary backlash funded by the bourgeoisie and petit bourgeoisie) doesn't suddenly make the whole thing fake and top-down.
for the most part, 'woke moralists' learned from the experience and became class conscious. they even did so before the rug was pulled out from under them,
correctly predicting that as soon as there was a reactionary movement companies would stop their token gestures. the idea that there are a bunch of SJWs who oppose redistribution between rich and poor because they're more concerned with the lack of female CEOs is a delusion believed only by stupid men acting in bad faith. usually idiots who like socialism as an aesthetic theory (dude what if soviet steelworkers!! oh, me, obviously, i'll work in the planning bureau or the military staff haha) rather than as a serious demand to change the world, by men who, like the small cohort of reactionary lumpen today, are unable and unwilling to adapt to the realities of a service economy where women make up a large chunk of proles and have relatively equal social status.

"The most progressive state in the middle east!" yeah, like the average anti-woke idiot under 30,
it didn't wash.
if some woke moralists are still a little naive (the famous "i'll do tarot readings under socialism" type) they are nevertheles well-meaning and pro-left, while the average anti-woke retard, even of the left, will contrive to explain w
