“EndWokeness”?

Do these people even listen to themselves?

I nearly spit out my coffee when I walked past a bookstore and saw Ted Cruz’s “Unwoke” on display.

This is just as golden as them being against antifa. Y’all ever stop to think that maybe that leaves you standing with the “fa”?

They have absolutely no idea what they're even talking about is the craziest thing. If you ask them to define "woke", they stumble.

Ultimate example of that.

"Build a great big, large fence - 50 or a 100 miles long - and put all the lesbians in there. Fly over and drop some food. Do the same thing with the queers and the homosexuals - and have that fence electrified so they can't get out. Feed 'em. And you know in a few years, they'll die out. You know why? They can't reproduce."

Wokeness is a great concept for fascist propaganda. It's vague enough to attach all kinds of scary fairytales (your kids are brainwashed for transgender rapists!) and you can umbrella all the minorities under it that you actually hate (Blacks, Jews, Gays, Liberals).

If lemmy had gold I would give it to you. What an insightful perspective.
