Many Donald Trump’s the people appointed to the administration are united by the desire to root out an agenda from the US administration, which is variously called either Marxism, feminism or woke.
That’s what he says Pekka Kolehmainen from the University of Turku. Currently, Kolehmainen works as a visiting researcher at the University of California, Berkeley, where he studies right-wing politics in the United States.
– Many of them are united by the idea that there is such a built-in agenda in the US administration, media, society, and institutions. Some called it Marxism, some feminism, some with the trendy name woke. It is seen to guide and limit the administration.
– The people behind the most famous roles see themselves as counter-revolutionary figures who have now come to power, this time with a clearer plan. The effort is to rebuild the entire administration in their own image.
According to Kolehminen, only later will we see how the conflicts of interest of the people appointed by Trump limit the effort.
