Dems.

When I hear Repugs, Fox News & DeSantis using the term woke - they are actually using it because they are 'anti-woke' and using it to slam Dems for being woke.

For Repugs it is just a made up word that is thrown out there as a negative. Dems have 'empathy and compassion for the poor; for women's rights; LGBTQ; all minorities - which the Repugs define those characteristics as negative. Repugs don't exhibit empathy and compassion for no one - only the rich.

The use of the term by Repugs just confuses the issue and I don't even think many Repugs understand the term themselves and are confused.

I think we should come up with a term that Dems can use to slam Repugs and their lack of empathy and compassion; their war on diversity and education. We should call them 'Cech' (pronounced keck). I made that word up by combining 'criminal and yech'. Yech is distasteful.

So from now on I'm going to be calling DeSantis; Fox News talking heads; Repug's in Congress (House and Senate); Conservative talk show hosts; and all their followers (like MAGA's; etc = Cech.

Again - I made the word up to counteract their 'anti-woke' use of the term woke - and I will use it as a negative word to describe them and their attitudes.

I hope you DU'ers join me in calling them 'Cech' - when they throw the negative connotation of the word 'woke' at us.

when he's capable of - not just this, but other penetrating observations.

I remember him as being the first to got out - but never did understand how he got in.

pertains to just racism or other similar social injustices. Seems like it could include a whole host of issues such as climate, environment, regulation, safety nets in general, assholes running for office, etc.. Has to do with whether or not your eyes and ears are open and available.

I'll honestly be surprised if we do not see that come about rather quickly.

Any methodology that employs facts in evidence to surmise a reasoned outcome will always be skewed against the delusional malevolence that is Y'all Qaeda's Nat-C Fascist GOP.

Next up, GOP prods removal of Physics from Nationwide Curriculum, as all the laws of Physics are inherently "woke" and discriminate against their "closely held beliefs"...

I seriously would not put it past them, I've got MAGAs all around me that are telling their children not to go to university because it would make them stupid.

Here's to the ouroboros quickly finishing their meals...



May reason rule.

Embrace the word "woke"! I think it was a mistake for the Right to center their 2024 platform on this word.

Instead of simply ignoring the word when it comes up, disassociating yourself with it.....take it on!

I'll bet that if you didn't let the Right interpret it for you...which they can't anyways....and instead of trying to distance from the word, wear it, interpret it for yourself, and show how out of touch Rs are with their own Cancel Culture and bigotry.
