    Of course *you* would...

    Idiots like her are focused on battling "woke"; meanwhile she ignores her state's real problems because that would require actual work and creative solutions...

    Arkansas ranks:
    43rd in education
    47th in health care
    49th in crime and corrections
    Source: US News and World Report

    Oh, and corruption...

    Woke only means compassionate for others.....only simple minded people would attach a negative connotation on something so good at it's base.

    Jesus Christ was woke.

    Lol, they went hard at KK.... Loving it!!! These people deserve to get ridiculed for how stupid they are. All they had to do was not inject existing franchises with identity politics and race swapping... I mean, how can you mess up Star Wars??? There were 6 entire movies they have could have watched before making the 7th and still tried to get away from what actually made Star Wars good.

    Yup - terrible situation, but there is nothing that he can realistically do. He could hate her, and maybe he really does, but it doesn’t change anything.

    It means you grew up in the rich 97% white suburbs and then you went to an expensive liberal college and were made to feel guilty about it by professors who also grew up that way. This is all on the wonderful road to elitism, where all of you idiots will end up.

    Because acting like you know something others don’t is exactly that.

    Many of us learn about the world through life experience. “Woke” increasingly means that you had to catch up later, as you moved from one insulated bubble to the next. Yet, you still think you’re ahead of everyone in your newfound wokeness. Plus you can still be cool around your bubble buddies.

    Woke means you make the same movies over and over again but change out the race and gender of the characters

    It’s really a slavery term. It basically meant to not trust southern white folks and to keep a low profile when escaping north to freedom. It’s a necessary term for that time.

    I’m not saying that the word can’t serve a positive purpose now, but I cringe when white folks lean on it so hard. To me that is mere pandering. Just be a good person. Don’t be racist. That’s enough.

    @AroundTheWorld

    woke means you want everyone on your nba team to be black but then you realize the black guy who broke his girlfriends neck is not good
    And the best player on your team is a Muslim dude from turkey

    Woke means you make up different rules for everything to get fake likes on TikTok

    oh yeah fat and ugly models for Victoria secret but you would attack Tilman if he put ugly chicks on the power dancers

    Woke is protesting oil at a football game or art gallery..... Woke is replacing original characters with a character that is the exact opposite. Woke is defending and justifying the trash adaptations by saying everyone around them is racist or homophobic for not liking the race swapping and trannies....

    I don't know what modern woke is, but in history, it meant young people voting for Lincoln.
