Elon just learned the most important thing to remember when dealing with the woke mob
· Nov 4, 2022 · NottheBee.com

We all have to learn this at one time or another:

The bottom line for politics in modern America is this: You never try and appease the woke. Ever. You don't even try to try appeasing them.

Because — and this is an ironclad rule, as good as gold — the woke do not want to be appeased. The whole point of their politics is to be perpetually angry, disaffected, dissatisfied, furious, unrelenting, unforgiving. That's just the way it is. Their entire mode of doing politics depends upon never ceasing their outraged, performative wokeness.

Dealing with the woke mob is therefore pretty simple: You pretty much ignore them. They don't have anything of any substance to add to the discourse aside from furious, inchoate rage and pointless screaming.

Listen to more reasonable voices. Form your business decisions around them. Surround yourself with rational, thoughtful moderates and conservatives and liberals. Heck, you can throw in some very conservative and very liberal thinkers, too, so long as they're not woke, which is another thing entirely.

Bottom line: Just ignore the mob. Trying to appease them will only make things worse.
