The fact that people who think they are smart blame cultural shifts on a “woke cult” is amazing to me.
- alxjrvs 2y agoEvery accusation is a confession from the Red Hat crowd.
- goatlover 2y agoThe fact that people don't realize the same word can have multiple meanings and not just the meaning it had in some previous century is amazing to me.
- stanleykm 2y agowell look if people wanted to be able to use the words master and slave all over the place they should have thought about it earlier and not had masters and slaves to start with. i dont know what to tell you.
- cglace 2y agoPeople from the left who think they are smart have names for the people who represent this new cultural shift. It's natural to blame things you don't like on the other "stupid" group.
- stanleykm 2y agoI think there is plenty of room to critique what this person is calling “woke” terminology but the “warblgarbl woke cult” from the right is just absurd. Hacker News is apparently a place we are supposed to be able to have more technical and higher minded discussions than say Reddit but every time a cultural issue comes up we revert to cave man. Actually thats not fair to cave men, we revert to reactionary nonsense.
