    I hate the word “woke” in general after it deviated from it’s intended cause (not by the ones that coined it of course).

    However the right wing is very smart is disguising certain things that they pretend to champion and mask it as if they’re doing people a favour. A big part of “woke” (even though they can’t put it into words) is corporate pandering. Which I don’t think the left cares for too much… but that can be stretched to mean anything to be fair. The thing is that some people can THINK they mean: shoving representation to only sell tickets but it can also fit under as hating minorities because they’re taking over. It all fits into the same umbrella.

    In any case, black people were in ancient Greece just as there were black cowboys. World was more diverse than some think.
