    I once had an idiot rant at me that a movie character was woke because she was named America.

    They don’t know anymore what woke even means. There is a good chance that gay sex isn’t categorised as woke.

      Woke is just the new ‘satanic’. The bigots of the day don’t care what it means, it sounds distasteful to the people who’d listen to them so they apply it to whatever they’re opposed to.

      You make a very good point, “woke” has become a blanket term meaning “whatever offends our sensibilities the most this week.”

        Now it’s DEI that’s their boogiman and slur substitute of choice. Cuck is what they call white people that disagree with them.

      The meaning of “woke” changed… Like… 4 times, and very rapidly too. Now it’s just thrown at literally anything. Anything at all.
