In this essay, I argue that the Fourth Awokening is exhausting itself while AI-driven white-collar displacement could produce a Fifth Awokening through a broader crisis of elite overproduction. I also examine the return of class politics, the appeal of neoreaction, whether a “woke right” really exists, Zohran Mamdani’s rise, the left’s inability to learn from defeat, and the political trajectory of the Palestine movement.Read the written essay: https://1dimereview.substack.com/p/the-next-awokeningYou can listen to 1Dime Radio on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get podcasts.Timestamps:0:00 The Post-Woke Age7:46 Is Woke Dead, or Is It Coming Back?14:00 The Vibe Shift19:47 AI and the Fifth Awokening26:52 Elite Overproduction in STEM32:59 The FIRE Industries and Bullshit Jobs34:41 Blue-Collar Workers and the Producer Class44:12 The Appeal of Neoreaction46:52 Is There a Woke Right?52:48 Rise of Class Politics Across Left and Right55:46 Don’t Mess With the Zohran1:08:59 Why Mamdani Won1:13:39 It’s Not Just Optics.
