Woke Utopianism is destined to fail -- eventually

Michael Lind argues that “twice in the last half century utopian politics has emerged in the U.S.—once with the Republican Party as its vehicle, and now with the Democratic Party as its base.” The first instance, he claims, occurred under George W. Bush. The second is occurring now, thanks to the radical left’s three utopian social engineering projects: the Green Project, the Quota Project, and the Androgyny Project.

I want to focus on Lind’s discussion of the latter development. But before doing so, I should say that Lind’s discussion of the Bush administration presents a caricature, not an accurate portrait. …

Lind is on much stronger ground when he turns to the current woke revolution and three of its major projects.
