JO1s Posted May 7 Share Posted May 7 No, the people who whine about woke culture have a freak out when someone puts pronouns in their bio. Then in their bio they're like 'Christian conservative, America first, divorced dad' or some ****. 8 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Aston Martin Posted May 7 Popular Post Share Posted May 7 Abortion is outlawed in a large number of US states. Trans rights are either restricted, outlawed, or attempting to be outlawed in multiple US states. The US continues to send weapons to a country committing an ethnic cleansing that many of its lawmakers support. Anti-free speech laws are being passed, with a ban on a social media app being the most recent (even though it does a lot of the same things that US-founded social media platforms also do with user data). Does any of this seem "woke" to you? Or does it appear that conservatives are actually the ones going "too far"? Because I personally think it's the latter. 32 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gladiator Posted May 7 Share Posted May 7 Most of the people in my real life care about real issues than some underlying agenda or culture. While I do get a little frustrated about the desire for some sanitization of words used, it comes from a place of empathy for others so I do my best to police the language I use that could negatively impact others. Other than that, I cannot say that I am impacted enough by "woke culture" to know if it has gone too far or not, or even what it is anymore. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If U Seek Amy Posted May 7 Share Posted May 7 The internet wants you to believe everything has gone too far for engagement. Very rarely do things actually go "too far."
