Can we please stop calling "bigoted views against anyone not WASP, and a refusal to acknowledge current and historical oppression of anyone not WASP" "anti-woke"?
It's like "PC" ("I hate the gays and/or blacks and/or jews and I'm annoyed I can't just be open about that without someone calling me a bigot"), "pro-life" ("I refuse to allow a woman to make decisions about her own body and insist on trying to legislate my extremist religious views"), and so on.
I always thought "PC" was a funny term given the people using it are the most likely to be trying to tell everyone else what can/can't be taught in schools, what people can/can't publish, what people can/can't read in their library, etc.
Anti-woke has a specific meaning and its not "pro racism to non WASPS" so cut that BS.
That’s why the purge everything that just mention gay , trans or black?
What is it then?
Woke is everything, everywhere, all at once.
Pretty much if an action can even so much as be perceived as helping someone, somewhere, with something in a way that they do not "deserve", then it is woke.
Clean air? Woke! Better consumer protections? Woke! Not having lead in our pipes? Believe it or not, woke!
