  • They want to blame the bureaucrats, but they're going to need those very same bureaucrats if they want to get anything done.

The article from MSN discusses the perspectives of Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy on the concept of "wokeness" and its implications for society. Both figures have publicly criticized what they perceive as an overemphasis on social justice issues, which they argue leads to divisiveness and a departure from traditional American values. Musk has notably called "wokeness" a mind virus, suggesting it promotes a culture of victimhood and stifles free speech. Ramaswamy, in his book "Woke, Inc.," critiques corporate America for adopting woke policies to appear virtuous, which he believes distracts from genuine business and societal issues. The article argues that their views might oversimplify complex social dynamics, potentially ignoring the underlying issues of inequality and discrimination that movements for social justice aim to address. It suggests that while their criticisms highlight real concerns about how these issues are sometimes handled, dismissing the entire movement as counterproductive might overlook the necessity for societal evolution and inclusion.
