the cultist types just label anything they don't like as 'woke'...or anything that shames them for being hateful bigots. people criticize trumpers/desantis supporters for waving nazi flags at their chosen candidates political rallies? must be because they are woke lol

I feel like this type of stuttering happens when someone is using a word in a particular way, but when they get push back they finally self evaluate in that moment and realize all the different ways it could of been perceived and get anxious.

It's why you just gotta lay out all your cards as soon as it happens.

But if you're still using that word unironically in 2023 to make points, you're super far behind the evolutionary curve anyway :3. Or you're using it as a manipulation tactic, like it's almost always been used as.

it's hilarious that none of these people who base their entire identities on being 'anti woke' can even come up with a viable definition.

desantis own lawyer told a court woke means acknowledging that there are social inequalities and working to resolve those inequalities (paraphrasing). it's hilarious the cultist drones don't seem to acknowledge that fairly straightforward admission.

Same old "I don't know what this is, but the kids like it so it must be bad" that got the Beatles, Dungeon & Dragons, and Pokemon.

But the "hot take" take on woke is that it's the misguided ideal that racism, discrimination, and exclusion, can be somehow be defeated by racism, discrimination, and exclusion.

No that was because John Lennon was saying there were more Beatles fans than there were Christians in America (and this was a time when Christianity was 'waning' a bit worldwide) but phrased it as "[The Beatles are] more popular than Jesus", so the rural southern bible belt types started boycotting The Beatles and burning their albums.

the negatives that I associate with "wokeness" are more to do with the performativity of it -- that is, with people who feel the need to be seen supporting the various causes that they deem "woke."

also, while I don't necessarily take issue with any of the causes, they do sometimes seem to... miss the forest for the trees, maybe? as in, they often seek to attack symptoms of societal problems rather than the problems themselves

I mean the opposite. I originally read it as if she would admit that it's being used incorrectly. She won't when she doesn't even fit her own definition of it. Sorry about that my bad.

I agree that the people who complain about woke culture are not consistent with this definition.

It's a magical phrase that lets them spout virulent bigotry that would've been bad in the 50s, without admitting it. That way, just seeing a black person on your screen is woke, a gay person having a job is woke, a trans person asking not to be shut out of society is woke.

They assign it the meaning of "the left thinks racism/sexism/homophobia is the cause of or will solve everything" because they want to actively ignore the oppression that exists, shore up everything that causes is, stop anyone that tries to decrease it, and then actively increase it if given half a chance.

Like everything else from conservatives, it's conspiratorial projection that lets people be awful without feeling awful, and allows them to think the people trying to stop them and the people they harm are bad. Because they're both woke, one group by noticing what they're doing, and one by existing.

Honestly a lot of these reactionaries just have the mentality of children. Like they think people are going around calling everything racist or sexist. So they want their own 'buzzword' to use against companies and products that try to avoid being those things so they can do what they perceive as the same thing on the opposite end of the spectrum.

There was no proof or mention of a DNR, no confirmation from the doctors yet if she wouldn't recover, and the way she worded it made it seem like she didn't even have to think it through. From what I've gathered, the coma probably wasn't even caused by anything that would have resulted in suffering if she had woke up from it.

That is to say the first chance she got to take her mom off life support she did so callously and doesn't even have any regret about it.

I could swear "woke" simply used to mean having basic understanding of the facts, circumstances, and lessons of racial issues, and just being a decent person. Like pretty basic shit anybody who grows up in a society with a history of societal and institutional discrimination would pick up.
