WOKE!!!!!!
If you're a Trump-humping MAGAt, I just scared the living shit out of you with a single word.
You don't know what the word means, and your Republican politicians can never define it when asked for an explanation of what it is, or what it represents.
What they do know is that invoking that word strikes fear in the heart of every ignorant dumbass who they've brainwashed into believing that a single, one syllable word - when applied to anything - means something onerous, something evil, something that portends the end of civilization as we know it.
Let that sink in. You have been trained like dogs to react to a word. You foam at the mouth over a word. You totally lose your shit over a word.
And you wonder why sane, intelligent people see you as the ****ing idiots you are.

2. Sad thing, they will kill.
They don't care about prison, as long as the damage they do is done. This is how far it is at right now.

3. Which is why DeSantis has no chance as every other word...
out of his mouth is woke or anti-woke, which most don't know what it means. And once most voters find out that it means banning books, denying LBGTQ and trans people rights, not to mention women and banning AP Black history courses (pure racism), and silly anti-Disney crap, it may play in dumb****istan Floriduh, but it won't in Peoria.
DeSantis was supposed to be the smart trump but he's already way behind the legally beleaguered trump who by the time the primaries start, will likely be be under multiple indictments, after having already been found liable for sexual assault. So DeSantis is not so smart if ya ask me.

5. My understanding is the term "woke" arose out of the BLM movement, so when
MAGA extremists use it disparagingly they are turning it into a racist dog whistle. By now its association has expanded to include any marginalized group, in particular the LGBTQ community. “Woke” is to have empathy for anyone who doesn’t conform to their white male cis-gender faux-Christian patriarchal norm, or to show concern for or awareness of anything beyond one’s own immediate self-interest. Thus greed is good, and the greed of their venal patriarchal dominance is the highest good. That’s what they mean by woke. Of course they can’t define what it means, because they can’t admit even to themselves that their worldview is that petty and limited.

7. 'Woke'
It’s white grievance politics and racist replacement theory; the unwarranted fear that ‘white culture’ is ‘under attack.’
It’s the bigotry, racism, and hate of conservatives who seek to compel conformity and oppose diversity, inclusion, and expressions of individual liberty.
Indeed, there’s no such thing as ‘woke’ as misrepresented and lied about by conservatives.

8. Yeah, it is downright Pavlovian. Still...
The right wing propaganda organs continue to spew out their racist, hate-filled vitriol 24/7/365 on AM talk radio, Fox and other cable networks.
These organs are responsible for much of the projection that comes forth in talking points.
For example a bunch of neo-Nazis marching with Tiki torches chanting they won't ever be replaced seems quite demonic to me, yet many on the right are convinced that Joe Biden is a demon, the Democratic party is the one that is satanic, Donald Trump is King Cyrus, blah, blah, blah.
I mean, look at all the right wingnuts who have amassed whole arsenals of weapons so they can protect themselves from our government. Look at the preppers, the survivalists, the right-wing white supremacist hate-militias.
When Biden recently spoke about racism at a commencement, there was at least one whole thread on Facebook about how he's a demon and the Bircher types are the ones keeping the republic from falling as opposed to trying to pull it all down around our knees and destroy democracy, as they so clearly are.
I've often pointed out that the opposite of woke is asleep, and the people who want us to be asleep are the billionaire parasites and Wall Street greed lizards. Because if we are asleep, we ostensibly won't notice that they continue to systematically pick our pockets.
These people who salivate at the word 'woke' are proverbial useful idiots. Unfortunately, they are very well armed and increasingly violent.

Dear DUrps,
The seeming confusion over the meaning of "woke" can be attributed to the fact that ostensibly, it means "aware of systems of oppression", but in practice, it means all sorts of insane shit.
People have seen this intellectual sleight of hand for what it is, and that is why people across various demographics have soundly rejected the implementation of wokeness.
And that is why you are looked down upon by the sane people outside your little corner of the world.

Speaking of mentally ill democrats, look at these four mass shooters.

Very nice of the Democrat Party to make it very clear just whom it is that they fear.

As Larry Norman’s song says:
Sipping whiskey from a paper cup
You drown your sorrows till you can't stand up
Take a look at what you've done to yourself
Why don't you put the bottle back on the shelf
Does Nance smoke, too?

Has anyone that claimed to be "woke" been able to give the definition of a woman?

I've often pointed out that the opposite of woke is asleep,
Actually, the opposite of 'woke' is 'sane and able to think critically'.
For example, woke doctrine determined that church assembly during covid was a danger while mass protests for leftist causes wasn't.
Those who were sane and able to think critically, on the other hand, saw that conclusion for the hooey that it was.

So it's just another way in which leftists put themselves on a pedestal, as they do by calling themselves "liberal" or "progressive".
