    Merriam-Webster:

    chiefly US slang
    : aware of and actively attentive to important facts and issues (especially issues of racial and social justice)"

    Sounds like a good thing!

    Surely, being well informed is preferable to being poorly informed...

    Any dispute on that? Seems to be pretty straightforward. Knowledge is power. So what's the deal?

    It is logical that a society comprised mostly of individuals who are aware of and actively attentive to important facts and issues, especially issues of racial and social justice, would be a great society to be a part of. That would result in low crime and minimized hatred, a society where people respected one another and got along fine, happy and content, pleased to be a part of something bigger than them, something really great.

    Most people already think America is a great country.

    Wanna make America greater?

    A woke America would be a greater America.

    Let's Go, Get Woke, America!
    Unfortunately woke is the opposite of being informed. It's one sided history with an anti America anti white agenda.

    It is very unfortunate for America that the right has to have a different language than the rest of the country.

    It only means what you think to Trump sympathizers.

    The word means two entirely different things to the left and the right. The original version of the word is what the left understands and embraces. The right has turned it into something else to suit their narrative.
    Personal Ignore Policy PIP: I like civil discourse. I will give you all the respect in the world if you respect me. Mouth off to me, or express overt racism, you will be PERMANENTLY Ignore Listed. Zero tolerance. No exceptions. I'll never read a word you write, even if quoted by another, nor respond to you, nor participate in your threads. ... Ignore the shallow. Cherish the thoughtful. Long Live Civil Discourse, Mutual Respect, and Good Debate! ps: Feel free to adopt my PIP. It works well.

    If we really want to be honest, we have to understand that America was taken from the indigenous people and turned into a nation by white invaders. They used slaves imported from Africa to build an imperial empire. It was all justified at the time by believing the non-whites were inferior, and that this progress was actually doing them a favor.

    That wasn't really justification at all. It was BS.

    Now we are here and we are not going back. We are not the people who did those things. We find our selves as part of a nation born out of lies, and we are trying to figure out how to deal with that reality. The right wants to maintain the superiority ruse. The left wants to be honest about it, deal with it in a compassionate way, and forge a way forward from here without fooling ourselves.

    And that is our big national impasse in a nutshell.

    Oh, also add that the right doesn't want to talk about it honestly because that totally spoils their narrative.

    Yes, it's a big pickle.
