NO. "Woke" is a term Black folks were using to stay aware of racial and social issues going on. YOU clowns hijacked that word and bastardized it for your own culture war bullshit. There is no ideology with "woke". If anything, it's an ideology that you fabricated to scare people
To me, โwokeโ is indicative of any ideology that sacrifices logic, reason, rational thought, wisdom, knowledge, history, and facts on the altar of socio-political agendas. For example, when we as a society start to rationalize the idea that biological sex is somehow a subjective
