Actor-comedian Chris Rock continues to blast wokeness, and is now accusing left-wing scolds of running a Salem Witch Trials-like campaign with their cancel culture attacks.
\n\nRock has been taking shots at wokeness for a while, of course. He targeted the woke culture in his 2023 special Chris Rock: Selective Outrage . But in a recent interview on The Dailypodcast, Rock got explicit about woke culture and what it is doing to our country.
\n\n“The problem with wokeness is we’re in the Old Testament right now,” he said. “And the Old Testament has no forgiveness. The Old Testament didn’t work. So they had to write a remix called the New Testament.”
\n\nWhen asked if he felt there was anything “redeeming” that has come out of the last decade of woke leftism, he was not upbeat and noted that when things are “institutionalized” they often go badly.
\n\n“The Salem witch hunts. I’m sure the first three witches they caught were actually fucking witches,” Rock said. “But then you open up a witch office and now you’ve got to start lying. Now you’ve gotta fucking make s-hit up because you’ve got overhead. You’ve got to justify the witch hunters fucking pensions and shit.”
