[Rolling Stone] Young Republicans Are Begging Party Elders To Stop Saying ‘Woke’

all these dumb MFers using the word woke 24/7 can’t even define it

Xbox wants to reduce carbon emissions = woke

Biden’s bill had the word equality in it = woke

Green M&M changed her boots = woke

anything that doesn’t denigrate black people = woke

anything that’s geared towards inclusion and not hating someone because of their skin, gender, or sexual orientation = woke

Looney Tunes gave Elmer Fudd a scythe instead of a gun = woke

Black Panther has a majority black cast and female warriors = woke

the majority of the country just looks at these people like bumbling idiots

that clip of that girl being asked to define woke after using it 10x already and proceeding to stumble and discombobulate because she had no answer says it all

fcking morons

 

I don't blame them, its literally the dumbest strategy they have had yet.

 

It's up there on the scale of idiocy with "defund the police"

 

That opinion makes you a woke liberal socialist SJW groomer!!!

 

I wonder if they would call Jesus woke if they met him on the street?

 

"democracy advocate"?

 

You obviously spent more than the 17 seconds I did thinking about it.



I do disagree with everything after the first sentence in the 3rd quote above...empathy is absolutely not "innate".

And no, in no way am I calling the vast majority of modern conservative Americans "evil" or equating them with Nazis.

But to the question, you may be sleeping on "equality".

 

So, the younger Republicans are concerned that overuse of the term "woke" will politically backfire. I do sense that. But given that DeSantis and Republicans in general have gone all in on wokeness, I think it will continue to be used politically through the 2024 election. Aside from the frequent use of 'everything I don't like is woke' by many people, I honestly don't know what the term means. I have some clues, but the term has become so politically charged and anchored to some silly things, like the color of M&M's, that it has lost all productive meaning. By "productive," I mean a meaning that is somewhat accurate and can be discussed in a productive manner.

PS. I really dislike how people use these terms to, at best, express frustration instead of taking the time to articulate their points. It's another casualty of superficial social media culture.

 

Bobbie Harder's problem is the concept of treating others as equals. If we do that she can't sit on her almighty high horse and treat others differently.

 

I'm sure establishment Republicans will listen to the younger generation. The Republican Party is all about listening to new voices and ideas, and staying in touch with modern times, opinions and viewpoints.

 

I got a word for em:

Tittybaby.

“Don’t be such a tittybaby”

 

Oh ****, do I have a story for later

 

Most liberals are cucks so I will go with cucks as up next.
Not serious. But it won't be empaths. Most people display empathy contrary to chowds belief.

I am not sure if I have ever used the word woke as a descriptor so I don't mind it going bye-bye.

 

It involves the epic "tittyrock"

My grandad (or stepgrandad, but he was the only grandad I ever knew) Luke finding this rock. The Tittierock.

It was a piece of sandstone that, basically, looked like a tittie, nipple and all. (as soon as my brother gets home off of work, I'll get yall a picture)

Anytime one of us little grandkids would start crying about anything, Luke would say "I'm gettin the tiddyrock" and he'd make you hold it until you stopped crying, which didn't take long.

One of my favorite memories was me and Luke sitting at the kitchen table playing cards or dominoes or something, and my younger brother and cousin come running out of the back bedroom where they'd been playing: "LUKE, LUKE, Seth's crying! Go get the tittyrock!"...my cousin Seth comes hauling ass out of that bedroom with tears running down his eyes saying "I'M NOT CRYING, I'M NOT CRYING...."

If I could fabricate that handheld piece of **** as a way to keep kids in line, I'd be a....yeah

 

I enjoy the term and wish people would use it more often.

 

This is why we CF.
