In the U.S., many more people argue that right-leaning ideologies lead to terrorism than that left-leaning ones do. And while people often use the word woke here, you seldom (if ever) hear wokeism. That's much more common in other countries, like France, where it's called le wokeism.

Your argument is so strange by American standards, you almost wonder if it was written by an AI chatbot that was asked to construct an argument that "wokeism" leads to totalitarianism.
