I’m wondering what happens to older white guys who say things like, “Five or ten years ago bedrock liberalism was driving to become a colorblind society where we don’t do race.” That was Bill Maher in a CNN interview I just saw on YouTube. He was complaining, like so many men in my demographic, about “wokeness.”
