Are G.O.P. Voters Tiring of the War on ‘Wokeness’?

New polling shows national Republicans and Iowa Republican caucusgoers were more interested in “law and order” than battling “woke” schools, media and corporations.

Gov. Ron DeSantis last year used the word five times in 19 seconds, substituting “woke” for Nazis as he cribbed from Winston Churchill’s famous vow to battle a threatened German invasion in 1940.

The Republiclowns have been throwing The Woke against the wall for years and just now do they realize it's not sticking?

No wonder in the last 30 years of presidential elections, the Republiclowns have only won the popular vote ONCE.

The funny thing is that you don't see democrats tiring of "woke."

I don't mean they aren't...I mean they are but YOU don't see it.
 
No, roughly 70 to 80% of the population is tired of the whole "Woke" concept and of the radical Left. It is a MAJOR reason Joke is doing so poorly in the polls. Nobody but the radical left likes the radical left.

Given that WOKE is devoted to our suffering, they say so constantly, that is a good idea.

A great example of this is the Bud Light situation with Anheuser-Busch. They went with the woke ideology of the radical left in trying to market their product to a tiny niche market that really has no interest in it to begin with. The ad campaign became known to their consumer base that was the other 80%, give or take of the market. Their base responded in by dumping them and shifting to other similar products that don't advertise to the gay community in the least.

Anheuser-Busch is recognizing too late that these people aren't coming back either. The damage was done and it was fatal. Now, if they had chosen instead to make a gritty commercial like Modello or Coors did with dive bars, tattoos, custom car builders, and iconoclast street artists in it they would have done just fine. Even Corona is smart enough to market their product with Snoop Dog and college-ish guys on a beach kicking back with a beer. That's their market, and they know it.

The Left can push woke all they want, but it isn't going to fly the second it inconveniences somebody that isn't a Leftist. The response when that happens is "Fuck you, you manbun sissy girlyman..." or the like.

I am a Progressive, I am of the left.....when you insult all of the left you insult me, as I have explained to you before.

Do Better.

No, you are not. You are Left of Center. If you still think you are really a Leftist, then sobeit. I will insult you for your insane political and social views because you deserve it.

I sound the warnings of the cancer of my side and ask for adult behavior as we live in the fantasylands of children.

I deserve better from you.

The popular vote is irrelevant, it's determined by a few very populous states and is not representative of the nation.

That is why we don't use it to determine the presidential election.

Well I can't read your article because of the paywall but I'd say we are winning the war on the woke culture.

People appear to be getting sick of it and are rebelling against it.

It was really nothing more than a fad anyway.

Antifa has pretty much ceased to exist, BLM is on their way out, the defund the police movement has all but stopped with cities realizing how stupid it was.

Cities who are still practicing the woke culture are seeing business and people fleeing in droves.

California is a mess and just wait until the woke culture starts passing reparations bills, it will drive another nail in the coffin.

There is also a huge push against trannies in women's sports, people are getting sick of it.

Well, let's find out if you do. Do you believe:

That lots of Socialism to include heavy government control of the private sector is a good thing?

That a cradle to grave social-welfare state improves people's lives? (eg., perpetual or generational welfare)

Individual responsibility is irrelevant?

Government is wise and makes good decisions regarding your life?

Government should impose confiscatory levels of taxation on the successful whether it is an individual or business? (aka "Tax the rich")

Government, and government alone should be the font of knowledge and learning (eg., public education without alternatives)?

That ownership is evil and that you should be happy as a renter, leasee, or tenant?

Government knows best and that you should accept that?

That public transportation is something you should be using and that private ownership of a means of transportation other than possibly a bicycle is bad?

Let's start with that.

Which way is the ball moving? Which side has spent 50+ years losing?

The Rah Rah is for morons at this point.
