Can someone list what’s Wokeness?

[OddBeMe]

Just quick bullet points. Just seems to change with every right winger I talk to….

Yes, here’s the list

There’s no list, it’s just emotions

These folks are not "right-wingers". Just because the say they "Conservative" means nothing. They will adopt any label that makes them seem cool. This is all about branding. No one is going to try to make the Conservative brand look bad. There is too much good when you look at Conservative principles and its foundation.

But once you do, you realize nothing is Conservative about this new obsessing over "wokeness". That's why there isn't a static definition of it.

There is no such thing as "woke history" actually. As these guys don't even know the history they claim isn't "woke".

Robert Smalls did something unimaginable: In the midst of the Civil War, this black male slave commandeered a Confederate ship and delivered its 16 black men, women and children passengers from slavery to freedom. From slave to sailor to Congressman, read on for more about this extraordinary person.

Why is there not a movie about Smalls? Oh he’s black.

[RolandCuthbert]

Well, I am sure there will be one soon.

There are books however. But these guys don't read so. . .

when people virtue signal they are better than others because they are on the side of social justice which is "good" and everyone else is "bad" and "evil"

they use guilt trips and shaming tactics to justify their bad behavior. being "morally superiority" means they can do no wrong

BLM be rioting in the streets and burning down black communities and the woke crowd is silent on this just like they were silent during Stop Asian Hate on who the the real perpetrators were but Jan 6 is blown out of proportions to save their precious Sleepy Joe from being disposed

to the woke, believing in something different to them is a crime.

don't believe that illegal immigrants should be allowed to stay in the country? you must be a racist

don't believe that all men accused of domestic violence, rape and sexual assault are automatically guilty? you must be a sexist/misogynist/incel

don't believe there are more than 2 genders? you must be transphobic

won't hookup or be in a relationship with the same sex? you must be homophobic

don't believe in global warming? you just want the Earth to die

Woke

An oxymoron term used to describe the many indoctrinated & radically left-wing people of today's world who are obsessed with jumping on whatever mainstream bandwagon is necessary to feel included, though ironically being the most intolerant and hypocritical people on the planet.

The irony is the term should be used if correctly to describe those who are 'awake' to the modern world however these people are so closed minded they cannot think critically, and are actually 'asleep.'

'Hey did you hear about Danny dying his hair green just to fit in at college?'

'Aw really? Danny's gone woke?'

In the spirit of diversity and inclusiveness, I would wager that everyone's list about what Woke Culture means to them will be different and special. Here's mine:

1) Taking down Confederate monuments and flags - as a Southern man, I have no comment about this other than it's still legal to put white sheets on my bed, thank God
2) Washington Commanders - let's change the name of the NFL football team based out of the Nation's capital so that it doesn't offend Native Americans, would that be a great idea
3) Biden and Whats-Her-Name - let's put bimbos in the White House to show the world that even snowflakes deserve a shot at fucking up the global economy
4) Black Lives Matter - sponsored by none other than one of the wealthiest Jews in the world, George Soros

[OddBeMe]

Do you realize this proves my point, you anti semitic fck?

[bean2k21]

Maybe we should have left the Confederate statues after all, since you need something concrete to rule your life.

"Woke is an adjective derived from African-American Vernacular English meaning "alert to racial prejudice and discrimination". - Wikipedia

It's usually hyper awareness and has been perverted just like feminism has been perverted.

[Juxtapose]

Oh and it's also very left leaning, it isn't "alert" to anti-white racism often times.

[OddBeMe]

@Juxtapose Then its original “definition” is wrong too.

[Juxtapose]

It stays pretty close to the original definition but is over exaggerated. Much like how these radical feminists really take the tenants of feminism and pervert it.

[Sevenpointfive]

this woke theory came around the same time the matrix movie came out. it was blue pill theory not wokeness. it's waking up to realize everything you knew or know is not reality

[OddBeMe]

Ehh no. This red pill, incel, alt right came with Palin and the first black president.

[jshm2]

Anything a right wing fuckwit deems "not from my side"

[Snakeyes7]

The pretending to be enlightened while applying logic that has been done for centuries. The good ol' "opressed vs. opressors" dynamic.

[boobliker]

my take on it

alert to racial prejudice and discrimination.
