It's the push of transgender and other lifestyles other than conservative.

Re: what is Woke on a forum ?
Woke is:
- A process and methodology to get people to accept that witch is untrue and for EVERYONE to NOT believe their lying eyes. - A perversion of definition, where the meaning of all things are distorted and contorted. - A condemnation of all things I hold dear and love. - wholesale disrespect of all things true and right. - A sham... and a shame! j

Re: what is Woke on a forum ?

Re: what is Woke on a forum ?
This whole (WOKE) thing is fueled by the Media.
We all bleed the same blood. The Golden Rule is the principle of treating others as one wants to be treated. This probably isnt taught in schools anymore When Some A_ _ Hol_ starts acting out. Then someone speaks up about it. That same A_ _ Hole starts using there UN Privilege spill. Oh you are just treating me that way because I am _______. No you are getting treat like an A_ _ because you are acting like an A_ _ I will go back to my corner now. See you soon Dale

Re: what is Woke on a forum ?
I too have been wondering what woke is or means. But I didn't care enough to google it and go through oh so many links of BS. Seems every week there are new words or terms that some folks pick up on and adopt as word of the day or description of a group, etc. Florida governor uses the word woke as much as anyone I've seen.

Re: what is Woke on a forum ?
I can't be woke because I never was nappin'. My eyes are open and I can see the world just fine through them without anybody's help.

Re: what is Woke on a forum ?
Some great definitions in this thread! I had some vague idea what "woke" meant -- or stood for -- but never tried to pin it down.
I guess basically it's a concept that is just about 180 degrees from what I value and believe in.

Re: what is Woke on a forum ?
Some of the woke has been awaken to the fact that while they have been imposing their wokeness upon others...other folks wokeness is now being invoked upon them. A poke to the woke.

Re: what is Woke on a forum ?
It is just another catch phrase someone coined so that you have to choose what side you are on and so you have to figure if it makes you mad or not. Now a days you have to choose where you eat or where you shop or what you listen to. I do what makes me happy, have enough negativity from people around me.
I find it amusing the definition describes the people opposing it and the exact same people pushing it. Kind of like a oxymoron Woke A state of awareness only achieved by those dumb enough to find injustice in everything except their own behavior

Re: what is Woke on a forum ?
We got a new gold dog puppy a couple of weeks ago. We are house training him. So this morning it was -17 with about a 20 mph NW wind. I was really "woke" when I took him outside this morning at about 6AM.

Re: what is Woke on a forum ?
This is my favorite red hat I wear , I've gotten a lot of comments from the woke crowd over the last few years until they read the front of it just because it's red ? , Now I wear it just to get them going !

Re: what is Woke on a forum ?
Sounds like yet another way for some to fulfill their need to feel they are somehow better than others. Like they woke up to revelations they assume no one else ever pondered before when all they are doing is hoping a band wagon or souls trying to find their way.

Re: what is Woke on a forum ?
i think announcing your departure is as woke as being offended by anything. it used to be that if you didnt like what people said you just didnt listen.
I had a younger subordinate tell me at work 15 years ago that he "didnt like the way I talked to him" because i was direct and tried to keep him tasked focused, he was prone to throwing his brain around incorrectly. I politely told him he had asmo'd to my group because no one else in the company would even put up with him, and he was on the bubble of being let go, so he could either find some peace with how i kept him productive or find another job. he went to HR and told them what i said and they put him on probation. i feel like today they would throw him a pity party and invite everyone to bring food.

Re: what is Woke on a forum ?
^^^ Buncha knee jerkin' fools. "Can you read??" Makes me want to come out with that bumper sticker I thought up 30 years or more ago, "Think First". Got to keep things simple for people to grasp it. And that came to mind over traffic stupidity. Now it's everywhere

Re: what is Woke on a forum ?
"Woke" is just the new catchphrase for people saying or doing what one doesn't like. It works for everyone.
