This breakdown is sharp. These ideological battles aren’t just about politics but about deep pathological forces shaping society. The Left’s cultural dominance isn’t just pervasive; it’s an oppressive force that dictates institutions, social norms, and even individual thought. This goes beyond political disagreements. It is psychological conditioning, leveraging shame and fear to enforce compliance. The existing political framework is too compromised to counterbalance this, making reform within it feel futile. A completely new party or movement is necessary, one that rejects the ideological stranglehold and restores a foundation of sanity.
I agree with this analysis. One relevant point that the “woke center” aka “classical liberals”/alt-center harp upon in their argument ad hitlerum, is that the so-called “woke right” wants to part ways with the us constitution, which essentially constitutes a slippery slope, if not a precipice. I think this is worth discussing, but, unfortunately, the woke center is unable to engage in good faith, as you’ve pointed out.
In terms of ponerology, without such guardrails, what keeps such counter-revolution from pathocracy? If we look at the script from early 20th century Europe, the counter-revolutions were in many cases as bad or worse than the leftists they defeated.
Assuming Trump continues faithfully following the constitution, allowing bureaucrats and the judiciary to squelch any chance of restoring the republic. When thependulum swings around again, the gloves come off.
"Key individuals often associated with the “Woke Right” would likely include: Tucker Carlson, Candace Owens, Mike Cernovich, Nick Fuentes, Darryl Cooper, Curtis Yarvin, Auron MacIntyre, Anne Coulter..."
With that list of names, you already well illustrate that "Woke Right" is a meaningless mudslinging term. Some of these names are very different than others. Personally, I am fans of some of them, but would have nothing to do with Nick Fuentes and am uncomfortable with Candace Owens.
This was fantastic. If you're looking for essay idea, I, for one, would love to hear you expound upon the Oedipal condition - I'm only slightly familiar with Freud, and I'll bet a lot of others are only familiar with the dumb version of Freud. I'd love to hear it in your own words.

Also, let’s call them “woke center” because of their hysterical argument im at hitlerum and refusal to engage in good faith.

It could be a part IV perhaps. Were you able to trace back to parts 1 & 2 for coherency? That may provide some insights for you.
Read through all of them, although it my reading was bookending 12 hour work days. I may give them a second read through, now that I'm on days off.
