You have fanatics that believe that garbage and will unironically die for it because they believe that if they bring forth the paradise of Communism, things will magically get better. Which never happens.
That is never the case as Communism has one hell of a death count on top of society regressing. Granted, this particular insanity was perpetuated for decades with less lethal strains starting all the way from the 60s. As of 2026, the contagion has gotten quite violent because the disease has progressed to the point it is festering in government, media, business, entertainment, education on top of being backed up by the World Communist system (People like Fink who now runs the WEF).
The creepy part about this 'disease' is that it functions very much like the pod people in Invasion of the Body Snatchers. They're normal until they 'detect' that you are not a wokist or a libshit, they turn on you immediately.
From my observations here in Commiefornia, how fast they turn on you and how violent depends entirely on the level of indoctrination as well as background. A criminal with wokist beliefs will obviously turn violent right off the cuff while you have the typical liberal who will try to disbelieve what they hear, pull you back into the fold and hope you accept the creed of woke. So for obvious reasons, you need to learn how to lie and play the part to survive here.
It is important to remember that this disease is spread by both fanatics who are true believers of the cause and the malicious opportunists who see wokeness as a means for further control and cement their power. (As evident during the 2008 Occupy Wallstreet Protests). So dealing with this disease will require contending with both sources.
Now as for solutions on this contagion.
Generational Switch - As Yuri Bezmenov pointed out, it takes 15-20 years to get rid of the infection as that is how long it takes to train a new generation of kids to see wokism/communist ideology for the plague that it is and force the people entrenched with this out. On top of that, it requires society to return to religion as wokism fills in the gap left behind by turning away from God as well as ejecting every wokie out of positions that left them influence children.
Of course, this is very idealistic because wokies are a hostile entity and will not give up their power and control for shit.
The Suharto Solution - There was once a guy in Malaysia who dealt with the Communist scum that threatened the country. And he solved it by purging the fuck out of unions, Chinese sympathizers, the Chinese and anyone who has something nice to say about Marx. Turns out machetes and bullets are great for removing the woke. Unlike Poland and Finland who produced Rafal Ganowicz and Simo Hayha respectively that fought against Communists, their countries fell to woke rule anyway, Malaysia so far hasn't been hit.
This however, is a very drastic solution and the Communists themselves would love to apply this on everyone that isn't them.
The Nepalese Solution - Nepal wound up in Communist rule but as Commies keep on failing their game of civilization, the people had enough, overthrew the rulers and now Nepal is back to a monarchy.
I sincerely do hope they got rid of all Communists in their nation because it is very much like cancer. Let it survive and it will start the disease all over again. They can't help themselves. There is a reason why Rafal Ganowicz doesn't consider Communists to be people.
Once we somehow rid of the woke or survive long enough for the disease to die (as in the case of the Soviet Union), the atrocities and lies of Communists must be taught to kids and be considered to be a dangerous ideology much like Nazism is in Western culture. Thankfully, this wretched clownworld we live in has tons of evidence to why woke must be treated like a disease and eradicated whenever it pops up.
