I guess we just return to using SJW so nobody gets offended

SJWs are just people who are willing to stand up and fight for social justice for all - anybody using this term pejoratively is clearly someone who just hates justice and wants to increase injustice in society.

(lol)

Or we could just stop being cucks and use neither, and RWNJs could spell out their bigotry in plain terms rather than hiding behind weasel words when they get triggered by a black mermaid or a renamed cheese.

I blame Mark Zuckerberg.

 

[Papa G]

Did you really use woke as an insult to win an argument against someone you deemed more left wing than yourself?

LOL Edgie you muppet.

You'll just keep doing what you've done your whole life mate.

Stick your finger in the air to test the wind and use the terms and phrases you hear others use that keeps you in with the gang.

It's pretty obvious usage of certian terms around here are done in a sarcastic manner to draw attention to over the top behaviour and opinions. I have no idea what this recent stand is all about, some nonsensical attempt to draw a line in the sand or something? Thinking that the literal definition of the word means those using mockingly are against very general concepts?

Like anything one could imaging Astro posting. Remember her? Just as there is a screenshot of an old post. Have a look.

Now she was woke.

We are all right wing nut jobs in her eyes.

Medicalised fatphobia.

Eh, I am sure a few more years down the track bravey and schulzy and the like will actually be fully onboard with fat lives matter. They'll have to go back and delete their old posts where they engaged in discourse.

Do you really have nothing better to do than search internet forums for posts made a year ago to try and score yourself likes from Papa G and edgie?

I don't remember posting that, i usually hate the word woke so I was probably just drunk

Except that 'around here' it it's obvious the use of 'certain' pejorative terms by 'certain' groups against 'certain' others is done with bitter malevolence rather than benign sarcasm. And usually done by the group against the individual or minority.

Good old fashioned in-group adhesion via out-group hatred. From the school yard to the beer hall, it never changes.

Do you have the same feelings when Shuzly does it to Papa to score likes from yourself?

Stop carrying on like you don't engage in this kind of thing yourself, Mr Holier Than Thou.

Does he? Maybe you could do a search and find me some examples?

Don't need to search mate it's just up there, just above the one you've taken umbrage at.

The point, which you gleefully seem to miss most times, is that papa constantly rails about wokeness, as evidenced by his substantial posting history.

But if you want to pretend I'm anti progressive just because I called astronema out on a very silly claim, go ahead.

That's not what I was saying.

I was saying there is a time and place for using woke as a word to describe something that is ridiculous nonsense within the context of human society. That time and place for you, was the above.

woke

Originally intended to mean "alert to civil rights issues" or "takes an enlightened approach to civil rights", its meaning has changed. It is now associated with adopting an obsessive, blinkered or deliberately obtuse approach to certain civil rights, particularly in relation to equality. It refers to an approach which is overall and on balance harmful to society, ignores context and counterpoints, and is ignorant of the wider ramifications of the position taken.

Under the pretense of being politically correct, the "woke" person is, ironically, asleep, in that they are ignorant of or unconcerned by the harms caused by their actions. Such harms may include:
• damage to freedom of expression and freedom of association
• the diminution of comedy, and artistic license in music, to the point that it becomes dull
• stifling of conversation
• fear of expressing an alternative opinion or calling out that which is evidently nonsense
• feelings of being browbeaten, helpless and living in a dystopian society
• diversion of societal focus away from more pressing issues affecting society
• the breakdown of language and societal structures
• discrimination and prejudice against others with particular characteristics - typically those who, in a particular location or organisation, are in a majority - under the guise of improving equality and acting on behalf of the minority.

The "woke" person may be acting in their own self-interests to achieve their own ends.

Your definition sounds like a description of religious zealotry to me

I completely agree.

 

[OneGreatClub]

I completely agree.

So that means it is what the conservatives do more than what the Left do as the RIght (or Liberal party and US GOP)have by far the highest proportion of extreme religious views.
So when they accuse others of wokeness ( as in the term as described by you) it is in fact pure projection.
Glad we cleared that up.

With the exception of nursing home guy and when something exceptionally silly is reposted (TEAM VIRUS) that needs rebuttal, that's how the covid thread has been going for a year now.

The Reserve Bank has made a sensational decision to dump King Charles III from the $5 note.
In a statement, the central bank said it was time to update the banknote to feature a “new design that honours the culture and history of First Australians.”

“This new design will replace the portrait of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II. The other side of the $5 banknote will continue to feature the Australian Parliament,” it said.

I am talking about the Conservatives both here and there mixing their religion with politics and behaviour and Opus Dei and Seven Mountains Mandate.
