Reich-wingers haven’t a clue about much of anything.

Woke... What does it mean?

Woke might have meant something at one time but now it is just a word that politicians add to their talking points.

Pretty much what the responses have said, being aware.

For me, I am aware how white Europe has shit on the rest of the world for that last 600ish years and all the issues that stem from it.

I can't believe all the wokesters in this group who are in favor of being woke.

So you all agree with perversion being pushed on our children in schools, movies, TV shows and even stores?

What a bunch of wokesters.

So where are the anti-wokesters?

Someone’s been hitting the Faux “News” a bit too hard, sadly.

Since I am still awake, feel compelled to ask you a question.
Whom do you plan to vote for in the next general election for President.
I plan to write in Micky Mouse.

Just becasue you're fearful of "groups" of people, and that's all it is, does not mean your fear trumps their rights.

And still trying to figure out how "woke" is a bad thing.

And what perversions are to talking about, people not having to hide their lifestyles in the shadows? As I just said, it not ok to oppress people because of your fears. I actually give a "pass" to most past transgressions and they where different times and much of it was ignorance. But now we know better and there is zero excuse for bigotry.

There are those who continue to view the world as a simple one. One where everyone agrees on what a family is. History is only told from their view. No discrimination or oppression everyone is equal.
Any uncomfortable issues, thoughts or facts are scorned and ridiculed. Just plain ignored or denied it's existence.

So to be blunt, one is either Woke or asleep. Trying to view the world for what it is, in all of it's glory and troubles. Or wishing to stay ignorant looking for one that never existed or ever will.
