Exactly. That is why I believe that socialism morphed into the modern woke movement. They don't wear the label, but in essence, it is the logical continuation. The working classes deserted them when they became wealthy enough, so then along came the women (all men are evil), and then came the immigrants (all white men are evil) and then came the homos and on and on. The disadvantage for them is... that eventually the groups will starts to prey on each other, and infighting starts, and then the house of cards collapses. We've seen that in europe, where socialism has forgotten the "common man" in favour of homos, immigrants, women, eco-facists etc. and now it's blown up in their faces. As always... the extreme left and extreme right, always the populists, swoop in from the sidelines and wins. There is, however, another logical progression of the woke ideology that is less likely to happen. The groups keep dividing, and subdividing, until it reaches its logical end station were division is no longer feasible... ...individualism. ;)
