I really want people to learn the actual meaning of the word - it really says it all. And normally I argue for lingual drift and accepting the changed meaning of words, but in this case most people don’t know the definition, but aside from a racial/identity implication, they’re using it mostly correctly
Woke means looking at the system critically, not believing the things politicians and public officials tell you at face value, seeing how it’s all designed to turn us against each other so we never attempt meaningful change.
In a phrase, it means “wake up to the lies and think for yourself”
I really want people to start considering “woke” a slur. Its basically just a word the far right uses for people they don’t like, aka minorities.
