Woke in is when you don't play there games. Don't wanna join them beating up whoever is at the wrong end of the stick ? Woke.

See a observed phenomena as a result of complex socioeconomic circumstances instead of making a deliriously stupid absolute statements? Woke.

Defend a person that is weaker than you , has a different gender or skin color? Woke.

They are fucking bullies and if you are simple a decent, considerate person your behavior points that out . And like all bullies they hate that.

Well said.

I've long believed that racism, sexism, homophobia are basically forms of bullying. All are antisocial behavior and quite bad for society. I endured near constant bullying for a lot of my early life, as well as sporadic racism.

When I hear the word woke, I think about people who are against this kind of behavior whether its conducted by an individual, a company, a society, or a government. But all the time I wish that people would just call it what is is: bullying.

It would be much more effective than calling people racist or homophobic or sexist.
