One reason why the Greens will never obtain a large proportion of the vote is because they literally spend more time & effort enforcing the correct usage of gender pronouns than solving slack in the labour market - the latter of which concerns almost all adults.

Woke culture enables the establishment to look progressive while ignoring issues of class, which is anti-progressive. This allows the Greens (and ALP) to engage in cultural progressiveness by pandering to often tiny minorities while often ignoring hugely popular issues of class.
An obvious issue is our extremist immigration policy. It is carried out with obvious intent to undermine labour while maximising profit for capital. While some immigration is necessary, the last decade and a half has overwhelmed everything: housing, wages, infrastructure, etc.
Yet the reaction of much of the Left when it comes to any questioning of extreme immigration is to scream racism and call you a Nazi, fascist, etc. rather than engage in the facts that it is seriously undermining jobs, wages, wage growth and benefits.
The corporate Right, which are the beneficiaries of this scam, can& #39;t believe their luck that their traditional economic enemies on the Left are supporting their position. Woke culture is used to suppress issues of class by instead making immigration all about race.
As MacroBusiness reports constantly, every poll on the issue of immigration shows a growing majority of Australians oppose our extreme immigration policy. But that a majority are strongly concerned about an important economic issue is of no concern to the Greens and ALP.
But even the issue of immigration in terms of culture and class is minimal compared to the worst crime committed so far in the 21st century: our endless BS wars in the Middle East. Here& #39;s an example of the utterly deranged intersection of woke culture and class:
Labor wanted to block a right-wing figure from entering Australia for being anti-Muslim. Being critical of Muslims is bad, right? You& #39;ve got to protect oppressed people from words they don& #39;t like, right? https://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/2019/jul/31/labor-wants-australia-to-refuse-visa-for-career-bigot-raheem-kassam">https://www.theguardian.com/australia...
Yet what has the majority of ALP politicians been doing since 2001? That& #39;s right, they either explicitly support or remained silent (implicit support) for our wars, which has slaughtered almost 2 million Muslims, created millions of refugees and devastated their countries.
Hence if you say *words* that are considered to hurt others, elite progressives will smash you - all the while they enthusiastically support *actions* that murder and slaughter the very people they pretend to care about. Obama was the leading expert in this horrid statecraft.
Take Julia Gillard, probably the most progressive PM since Whitlam. Her administration was all about tolerance for women, Muslims, etc. while:
Continuing the wholesale slaughter of women and Muslims
Building concentration camps
Continue jailing them for the non-crime of drug use
Continuing the wholesale slaughter of women and Muslims
Building concentration camps
Continue jailing them for the non-crime of drug use
This is why Hillary Clinton is far more anti-women/Muslim than Trump: her crimes against them stretch back decades at the macro level (wars, jailing, etc.) but because these are *actions* of class, they are ignored while *words* by Trump are considered utterly outrageous.
