To this one, while the word existed decades ago, we shouldn't act like this was an overly popular word until recently. The word woke is not a popular word among us black people. Right wingers picked up the word likely during the summer of the 2020(?) riots. Then ran with it as their new buzzword that replaced "SJW" and "being political." The group that mostly clings to the word is right wingers. Personally I think we should stick with making fun of the GOP calling everything under the sun to describe everything they don't like as "woke." That and IIRC using what they acknowledged as the definition of woke (I think it was DeSantis's team) against themselves. We can make fun of them for clinging to a word most on the left aren't using, while not compromising our belief of injustices of this world. <cite>asdf8562 posted [p:972209210] in Would you ...

the_rowan 03/19/23 12:31:08 AM #36:	My reaction to hearing someone accuse anything or anyone of being "woke" is to immediately assume the following: 1) The thing they are describing did something that, in any way, shape or form, portrayed empathy towards other human beings or in any way portrayed someone who wasn't a straight white male in a positive light. 2) They have been told this is a bad thing by their beloved racist, sexist figureheads, but don't think of themselves as racist or sexist, so they have to come up with some reason the other side is evil instead, hence "woke". --- "That is why war is so tragic.
