The word gets tossed aroud by many people in many contexts...and even DeSantis uses the stupid term. This is what his mob reckon it means. Link. Ridiculous term and is just a grab word used by the right to denigrate in broad without really having anything specific to assert. Bah!
“To me, it means someone who believes that there are systemic injustices in the criminal justice system, and on that basis they can decline to fully enforce and uphold the law” So since republicans think there are systemic injustices against whites, republicans and christians does that mean they are woke and can thus be terminated under the little fascist’s stop woke law?
BAHAHAHAHAHAHAH! They are running from their own term that they once used proudly to proclaim how much better they were than everyone else.
It started as a reaction to inherent racism. It always reminds me of the “joke” about the two little babies that go to heaven St Peter looks at the white baby and says “you are going to get some wings and be a cherub”. The little baby is excited and starts singing “I’m going to be a cherub!” St Peter then looks at the little black baby and says “You are going to get some wings” and the little black baby starts to sing “I’m going to be a cherub!” “Errrrr No” said St Peter “You’re going to be a fruitbat” Hidden under that is a realisation that at least 90% of depictions of cherubs are as not only white skinned but often blonde and blue eyed. Sub conscious message “Good versus evil” in a skin colour. So to address that there were calls to change representation of some of these tropes. The screams from the right have been deafening
To me, there are many pillars that make up the concept of being woke, including, but not limited to, the following: 1. Inventing oppression of racial minorities and celebrating oppression of whites. An example of the former would be Bubba Wallace's racial hoax about a garage door pull being a noose. Hell, even ESPN made a documentary about the noose--er, I mean, garage door pull. An example of the latter would be celebrating and defending affirmative action, which is de jure discrimination against white men. That is being woke. 2. Virtue signaling, especially by whites, without actually sacrificing. Going back to affirmative action, this white male college student perfectly epitomizes this aspect of wokeism: he's for the discrimination of other whites to make himself feel good, but he would not want to do any sacrificing himself by giving his seat to a racial minority. That is being woke. 3. Celebrating white fictional characters being replaced by minorities, defending that by saying that they are just fictional characters, but then defending replacing actual white people with minorities Santa, Cinderella, and the Little Mermaid would be examples of the former, and "Hamilton" in which they replace actual white historical figures with minorities is the latter. Of course, the casting for "Hamilton," was racist against whites. There's plenty of other examples, but those are just some of woke's greatest hits
Not sure why the left is somehow magically confused over what the term woke means. Being woke has always pertained to those who fabricate some injustice to show how they are so above everyone else for their own over sensitive declarations. Examples DeSantis passes a bill that stops educators from discussing gay and trans sexuality issues with 5 year olds The Woke: Its the don't say gay bill Knowingly being over sensitive to issues just to try and show yourself as being more righteous. The woke uses fake terms like systemic racism, that doesn't exist.
That's not true. Affirmative action is systemic racism against white men and Asians. But I think you meant systemic racism against minorities, which, yes, that is not an actual thing.
Okay...so isn't that the old fashioned 'strawman' overlayed with 'virtue signalling?' 'Woke' has been coined by some wanker bereft of relevant words to use. That is....'I don't like it. It is woke.' It's used as though the voodoo doll has been taken out, the needle inserted into the pretend heart and someone is supposed magically to fall off their perch.....because.......someone said......'woke!' Bah!
Okay -if you think “white men” are so hard done by how about changing places with someone scrambling in the Congo for pennies a day digging up rare earths that some western corporation is making millions from
What does "someone scrambling in the Congo for pennies" have to do with the justification of discriminating against white men? You want to know what wokeism is? Look in the mirror. You're doing it right now.
There is systemic injustice against whites, but Republicans, on that basis, are not declining to fully enforce and uphold the law. Thus, your logic does not follow, as always.
Your logic does make sense except many on the right are absolutely attempting to do so… See Jan-6 as an example Thus, your logic does not follow, as always.
Maori Jesusis not offensive to me. They took my advice andmade their own art. What is offensive is all the woke bitching and moaning. of wokesters about how White people don't paint black Cherubim.
