The philosophy and the "epistemology" of Woke represent a continuation of the old Enlightenment and Marxist denial of human nature. Humanity is a "blank slate" upon which society can inscribe everything. This philosophy will arrive, through postmodern-deconstructive philosophy, at the rejection of the distinction between good and evil, truth and falsehood, identity and non-identity.

Jacques Derrida will delegitimize the concept of Law, replacing it with the principle of absolute indeterminacy and fluidity. Gilles Deleuze will reach, with a "revolutionary" trick, the most extreme individualism, defining the subject as "herd." Michel Foucault will see power as a diffuse ideology, whose agents are all people, considering neoliberalism as a response to the society of discipline.

As applied philosophy, "wokeism" is promoted preferentially:

• By a version of the feminist movement that sees gender as merely a social construct.
• By a decolonial movement aimed at replacing the Masters with the dominance of those who were once subservient.
• By a cultural current that denies the continuity of human civilization and objective or scientific truth, to the benefit of a depressing presentism.

The contradictions of races, ethnic groups, genders, and sexual identities take on a substantial and competitive character. Consequently, the denial of the formation of a society of whites and colored people prevails, the questioning of biological sexual identities intensifies, and scientific truth is challenged.
