It used to just mean that you could see through bullshit but then it went the way of the "red pill" and got co-opted by conservatives but now I see it being used to talk about feminism and #MeToo and shit.

You will never be boomer age. It's a generation. Also there is a generation between millennial and boomer. Gen X...

Being able to find some sort of human rights violation in everything you see. Often times very convoluted and involves grasping at straws to make someone look like the victim, never being satisfied, and sometimes a moving of the goal posts.

This guy gets it!

Some SJW tried to pull that woke garbage on me about "institutionalized racism" myths and pretending human sex trafficking happens in America even though we have the best police force in the nation.

I just tell them to STFU as soon as they start talking about rights.

It shouldn't ever be used. It's one of those awful one liners people deliver like "yikes" when they can't dispute the debate/discussion at hand with actual points.

People realized that using SJW made them sound like an incel so now they are trying to make woke the next buzzword of choice without realizing it too makes them sound like an incel.

Both Red-pill and Woke are terms from the world of koo koo conspiracy theorists.

Red pill got stolen by alt-righters.

Woke is now similarly taken to mean the same for the left.

I don't like either term. IMO the left doesn't need terms like that, like the right needs them. Especially a tainted term taken from pretentious conspiracy theorists.

Hope it gets dropped like red pill (black pill etc) should be gone.

any time you have rhetoric with little to no substance, you look like an idiot. doesn't matter the term. just know wtf you're talking about and be able to articulate it without melting down.
