Woke? Yeah Right...

[VerdantGreen]

Yeah, I became of certain realities decades ago, and many of them make it difficult for me to interact with "the regulars" so to speak. That was before all the research I've done since. I could fill post after post with amazing information... and not get a single person who could follow along. So I try not to even go there...

Spoken like a true Diplomat !

It's incredible how much better he is at everything.

He is so woke that he's the only one.

A solid dose of psychedelics might destroy that ego, if only long enough for self reflection.

Which definition did you go with, @Douglas.Curtis ?

I went with the "not worth my time to pursue further"

I went with the "not worth my time to pursue further"

so, now we know how the "inferiors" deal with reality handed to them by "regulars"...

Recently came across this 'woke' term and am confused. What part of being 'awake' and 'aware' would have you calling your movement by a slang term which brings to mind uneducated and not very bright people? What is so 'woke' about proclaiming you're ignorant?

I've been listening to the screeching about "woke" for a number of years now and have come to the conclusion that being "woke" means that you are considerate of other people whose lifestyle choices may not match yours exactly. And being "anti-woke" is exactly the opposite - preach hate at people whose lifestyle choices may not match yours exactly.

woke is just slang for sanctimoneous . has nothing to do with being a good or bad person

 

[armedoldhippy]

people whose lifestyle choices may not match yours

those damn "others" cause so much trouble! it's always "them", we aren't causing problems. if "they" would only act normal...

the term originated in American black culture and basically means awareness of social injustice.

i don't mind the term at all.

the only ones who resent the term are the ones committing or supporting social injustice.

They are trying to make it hip to hate again.

Thanks Trump.

Thanks Trump.

he didn't make it "hip" again. it just gave the assholes the nerve to act like that in public again for the first time since George Wallace was running for POTUS... they have talked like that in private ever since.

It appears that woke has more than one meaning in the minds of many.

Does the phrase Woke Toke have any meaning ?
