It’s time to admit it: Postmodern progressivism is no longer simply a political ideology. It has become a secular religion dedicated to rolling back progress and eliminating discordant debate in America.

The Merriam-Webster Dictionary defines “religion” as “commitment or devotion to religious faith or observance” and “religious” as “relating to or manifesting faithful devotion to an acknowledged ultimate reality or deity.” Postmodern progressivism — or “wokeism” — unquestionably fits both criteria, the “ultimate reality” being the worship of an anti-individualistic socialist state that seeks to level all groups through coercive redistribution.
