It’s a broad label for anything they don’t like (LGBTQ+, feminism, DEI, etc.), but doesn’t “woke” mean you are awake? Would that imply that things that are not “woke” or are “anti-woke” are “asleep”?
Then they go on about conspiracies (“climate change is not real”, “deep state”, “5G is harmful”, “vaccines cause autism”, the list goes on unfortunately…) where they’re claiming that you need to “wake up to the truth”. Surely they don’t consider “woke” to be “the truth”, so shouldn’t they call it something like “asleep”, “sleepy”, “snoozy”, or similar?
I needed to use a lot of quotation marks there…
“Woke” was what some people said they were when they said and did certain things. Then some other people decided they didn’t like that first group of people, sometimes for what they said, sometimes for what they did, sometimes just for who they were, and they saw that those people called themselves woke. So they decided that they didn’t like woke, and when they saw other things they didn’t like that reminded them of the first group, they called that woke too.
There is not necessarily only two groups.
