Is Christian Wrong?

My co-host Christian has put out another video, which I encourage you to go and watch over on his page. In it, he discusses why wokesim seemed to appear out of nowhere, its true origins, and what it will take to defeat it... Will I agree with him, or are Christian and I about to have a fight?
