In the New York Times editorial by Ross Douthat entitled When Wokeness Becomes Weakness (May 1, 2021), why does Douthat say that the elite language of "wokeness" might be a problem for Deomcrats in the future? Do you think most informed Americans would agree with Douthat that embracing the progressive left's notion of "wokeness" will create a whole new class of swing voters? Provide examples from any of your reading, your conversations with other Americans or your experience to support your evaluation of the author's assertion.
