Self-Awareness Is a Good Thing

As we’ve all noticed, one of the terrible consequences of the erosion of American society is the loss of awareness of other people.  We go to the grocery store, for example, and see people pushing their carts around with absolutely no consideration for others.

An active concern for the well-being of other people is the very definition of manners.  Unfortunately, it’s also the definition of “wokeness,” the term that tens of millions of hateful pigs use to ridicule courteous, considerate people.

This is one of the key ingredients in today’s divisive world. In cooking, you can substitute onions for chives or shallots, but if you want a truly repulsive society, there is no replacement for a lack of self-awareness.
