The Wokeness Charade that Stifles Thought and Art
<p>In a CNN <a href="https://www.cnn.com/2023/08/18/opinions/bradley-cooper-leonard-bernstein-maestro-perry/index.html/" rel="noopener ugc nofollow" target="_blank">opinion piece</a>, for instance, David M. Perry explains why he cares about Cooper’s fake nose. It’s not that Perry thinks he has the moral high ground in worrying that although Cooper himself isn’t anti-Jewish, his use of that prosthesis feeds into the stereotype of the hook-nosed Jew. No, Perry’s point is just that we’re all entitled to our feelings.</p>
<p>As he says, “Why can’t we acknowledge that each of us might have a reaction to Cooper’s prosthesis — or to any act of representation of people with whom we personally identify — and that’s ok? It’s okay to be offended, to feel a certain way. It’s okay if someone else feels differently.”</p>
