I like my definition of "woke" better.
- samtp 4y agoUsing your definition, most people who use the term "woke" as an insult are in fact super woke themselves.
- jimbokun 4y agoSure.
- jimbokun 4y agoHere's an example where everyone involved seems to be employing woke thinking, from opposite political angles: https://nypost.com/2023/02/26/white-student-sues-historically-black-college-howard-university-for-2m-over-racial-discrimination/ https://nypost.com/2023/02/26/white-student-sues-historicall... Not arguing about facts and opinions, just about who was more "harmed" by the other parties speech. Not that the arguments presented are dumb and ridiculous, or even ridiculing a person for holding those views. But an attempt to litigate harms based on their individual identities. (The label "white panther" I find pretty funny and a good example of battling bad speech with counter speech.)
