The thing is, is perfectly able to define . But she doesn't dare say it out loud. She would have to say directly that the GOP agenda is White Nationalist to its core. She would have to admit that "Woke" is nothing more than a kinder, gentler version of "Replacement Theory."

They took a word from , and made it into the nightmare of White People. The message is that Black culture is illegitimate and will replace "legitimate" White culture.

@Jake_Vig She wrote an Op-Ed for Newsweek. I thought she'd explain what her book was all about. Instead, she whined and cried over being asked to define "woke," and shared she has six kids whom she homeschools and her husband works from home.

I guess summarizing her book is a struggle for her as well.

"Makebelieve is key to illiberal projects around the globe.

Makebelievers pretend, as children do, that the world is something that it isn’t. They makebelieve that they are the victims of some kind of conspiracy of dark, secret, malevolent forces against which they must pass laws to protect themselves and 'their way of life.' If you ask what these dark, secret, malevolent forces are, the reply is going to be like Bethany Mandel’s."

John Stoehr writes,

"We should see 'woke,' not as signifying a concrete meaning, but as a mirror. It reflects back at the illiberals their imagining of the world. It reflects how they imagine themselves and their enemies. We can say, as many have said, that Mandel wrote a book about a concept she can’t define. We can also say she wrote a book about makebelieve."

More On the Over and Misused Word, Woke; Shocking! Conservative Author Cannot Define It
Although Bethany Mandel dedicated an entire chapter in her new book, “Stolen Youth,” she co-wrote with another MAGAt, Karol Markowicz, to the word, woke, Mandel doesn't appear to have the slightest clue what it means

And one really shouldn't be surprised to see Bethany Mandel declare herself a "victim" on Twitter. If you read her tweets slowly, you can even hear the telltale saccharine strings just underneath her attention-seeking nonsense.

This is right out of the conservative playbook:

"I don't actually have an argument other than random hate and cannot define a basic term. Therefore, I have been needlessly excoriated by the "cruelty" of intellectual debate. I refuse to accept responsibility for my own stupidity Please feel sorry for me."

Well, excuse me while I pull out the world's smallest violin. If you cannot argue or defend your points, you have no business making media appearances.

Bethany Mandel is now the clear front-runner for the DUMBEST conservative columnist in America. And honestly, folks, given how many gormless sods are employed to bang out idiotic drivel, that's no small feat! This moron actually authored a book that accused liberals of "woke indoctrination." Yet when she is asked to define "woke," she cannot.
