    It means you're an idiot. Just a bunch of liberal white people who hate themselves trying to pander to people who don't need it. If you're a regular functioning member of society you have friends of all different backgrounds who don't need to.be treated differently. The "woke " group is pathetic

    Deb is delusional as always. So much so she had to lie about once being a Republican. Pathetic

    The term "woke" needs to be "cancelled". "Defund" it already.

    Only ****ing idiots use those words in a non-ironic manner.

    I don't even think its pandering, some of the most racist people I've met are these woke white liberals. Its virtue signaling to gain some sort of moral superiority, these people operate on that currency and live for it.

    Woke people are not sincere, there is no poster on this board that doesn't wasnt systemic injustices to stop. Woke is a subset of fake virtue signalers

    That's accurate. It's just an embarrassing movement altogether.

    Nobody I can see wants systematic injustice to continue. You're virtue signaling and looking for a reason to be offended. You're not helping anything. Just part of the problem

    The only thing that offended me about that post was the blatant disregard of proper grammar.

    Take your make-believe culture war somewhere else.

    Specifically the type "white leftist people with purple hair and no real job who virtue signal on social media all day" are the worst. They are among the most hateful people around, but try to think of themselves as more virtuous.

    ALL the racist people I've met were white right wing people mostly from my time in Marine infantry.

    Actually scratch that. There are some South Asians in my extended family that are racist towards Blacks and Jews.

    Who is the woke group? The right has created an artificial out-group that has no basis in reality to keep you perpetually angry. You focus your anger on something meaningless instead of thinking about actual problems in society.

    Most people aren't aware which is why "woke" is the term. Most people are unaware and asleep. How many racist people aren't are aware they are racists or say racists things. In the most extreme example, I literally know people that use the N word as part of their regular vocabulary that don't think they are racist. They just think it's normal vocabulary from their neck of the woods in South Carolina.

    I don't think anyone should have to feel guilty for the color of the skin they have been born into.

    Woke activists disagree.
