I could never understand when or why these basic principles or ideals earned branding, and to use 'woke' isn't undesirable. Most people would find wokeness anchored in morality. If that's the case, I'm a wokety-woke bloke.
Maybe if all of us who try to live good, moral lives started calling ourselves "wokety-woke blokes" it would stop scaring off the MAGAts who are afraid being woke might be a good thing.
The term "woke" has pissed me off from the first time I heard it. Ron DeSantis uses it extensively and it basically refers to anybody who disagrees with the Republican autocratic philosophy.
There you go, reading my mind again Fred!!! LOL "WOKE" It has been driving me nuts since the first time it came out of anyones mouth! All those things we have automatically done all our lives is now a NEW thing called WOKE! It's not woke people, it's the pure common sense most of us have lived all our lives, but, now people refer to plain common sense as woke. It's an insult to the intelligence of those of us that can count to three & run, jump, play hide n seek. Are these peoplejust catching up to our kindergarden days? It's the bloody weed, right? Awwwaaaaaoooooman! haha

“‘Wokety-woke bloke’ might be the most honest definition I’ve seen yet Pete. 😄
If that’s the bar… I think most of us qualify.”
Those "wondering", have set their bar too low haha

“Yeah, I get the frustration Frank.
The word gets thrown around so loosely it ends up meaning ‘anyone I don’t agree with.’
That’s kind of the point of the post though...
once it turns into a catch-all like that, it stops describing anything real.”

😄 I hear you, Patsy.
That’s exactly what I was getting at...
most of this isn’t new thinking…
it’s just everyday common sense getting a new label slapped on it.
If anyone asks me if I am woke? Response: Are YOU sane? haha
Woke to me means you have empathy
'Everybody' awakened, we Woke up.
