obvious why they have a problem with "woke"-ness.

If you ask any of these weird babbling motherfuckers what the hell they are talking about with all their "woke" objections, they start yammering about utterly delusional nonsense which is only occurring in their imaginations, or the imagination of whatever propagandist whose teat they suckle from. The only reality-based bits left once you sift out the counterfactual stuff are the parts where they can't be dickheads without people calling them out for it.

So as a general rule anyone crying about "woke" anything can fuck all the way off, because the overwhelming majority of such people are just plain old boring jerks. Bye bye!

Being woke is so terrifying to Republicans that they are trying their damnest to bury the word, to overuse it so other users are embarrassed to — or seen as “uncool”.

Fuck their bullshit license-plate language.

That is how you marginalize minorities - by refusing to have empathy for others. And the next thing you know you can lump together the minorities you designate as the untermensch. Sub-humans do not deserve equal status and rights as the anti woke folks and thus are made targets of discrimination and violence. Anti woke is an effective campaign of stochastic terrorism.
