    Here’s an article where they make fun of Christians:

    8 Other Uses For Your Bible Since We Know You're Not Reading It, You Sinner


    https://babylonbee.com/news/8-great-...it-you-heathen

    I think that’s pretty clever.

    Like the article says, if you don’t get it, I can’t help you.

    What is satired is the right's definition of wokeism.

    And that’s ok. I personally like how they make fun of Christians. Maybe because I’m not one.

    That exactly what is being satirized. You invite derision and mocking. Thank you for proving our point.

    Youre suggesting that's not an accepted truth today?

    Kamala actually supported the idea of reparations for slavery during the campaign. Not sure if that qualifies as woke but it’s certainly worth being ridiculed.

    Yes I do invite those things because leftist cunts are fucking America up the ass with their fucking idiocy and they are evil. So you're saying people with penises can't be women and menstruate?

    Can you define for me what the real world application of the word is now days? I honestly dont think I understand it.
    Creating a new word doesn't change the actions of people. This has been well discussed for years so if you haven't been following I don't know what to say.

    There are people like the OP that try to pass off any push back against wokeness as right-wing anger/racism but that attitude is coming from ignorance (lack of knowledge of the subject) or just denial/partisanship. When liberals talk about there being a wokeness problem then that argument rings hollow.

    If you're interested in hearing more about wokeness I'd recommend reading the work of John McWhorter. He's a black intellectual, author, professor of linguistics at Columbia, writer for the New York Times and a Trump hating Democrat. What's interesting about him however is he's a heterodox on racial issues. He has large amounts of work available on the web about wokeness. He even has a new book coming out in a couple of weeks:


    Woke Racism: How a New Religion Has Betrayed Black America


    This is the write up for it:

    Americans of good will on both the left and the right are secretly asking themselves the same question: how has the conversation on race in America gone so crazy? We’re told read books and listen to music by people of color but that wearing certain clothes is “appropriation.” We hear that being white automatically gives you privilege and that being Black makes you a victim. We want to speak up but fear we’ll be seen as unwoke, or worse, labeled a racist. According to John McWhorter, the problem is that a well-meaning but pernicious form of antiracism has become, not a progressive ideology, but a religion—and one that’s illogical, unreachable, and unintentionally neoracist.

    In Woke Racism, McWhorter reveals the workings of this new religion, from the original sin of “white privilege” and the weaponization of cancel culture to ban heretics, to the evangelical fervor of the “woke mob.” He shows how this religion that claims to “dismantle racist structures” is actually harming his fellow Black Americans by infantilizing Black people, setting Black students up for failure, and passing policies that disproportionately damage Black communities. The new religion might be called “antiracism,” but it features a racial essentialism that’s barely distinguishable from racist arguments of the past.

    Fortunately for Black America, and for all of us, it’s not too late to push back against woke racism. McWhorter shares scripts and encouragement with those trying to deprogram friends and family. And most importantly, he offers a roadmap to justice that actually will help, not hurt, Black America.

    In other words it's spot in and you've chosen to ignore it.

    TBH, I don’t really understand what it means to be woke.
