It all started with the unofficial godot discord admin dealing with some chuds and people turning their ire towards the Godot Foundation staff instead.

Since Godot has stubbornly remained on the Xitter nazi bar as a valid space for PR and social media interaction and dared to promote the Wokot hashtag and reiterate their progessiveness, the reactionaries infesting that space are now piling on their socials and harassing everyone they can get their eyes on.

Examples

Anyway, solidarity with the targets of harassment. I hope they finally realize that Xitter is a lost cause.

Update: Godot is being review-bombed

Fortunately the reactionary backlash seems to be having the opposite effect

Woke is interestingly becoming a word that can easily trigger and be used to troll conservatives.

My favourite thing is asking them to define woke.

My favourite thing is asking them to define woke.

IMHO, you are woke if you exclude/damage who does not think exactly like you, and later also who thinks like you but he/she is not excluding/damaging the people you put in the black-list.

So it is a rather toxic and dangerous movement, resembling a little the Reign of Terror in France.

@mzan @Grandwolf319 So...The KKK is woke by your definition?

[-] mzan@programming.dev 2 points 1 month ago

The definition was incomplete and a provocation. KKK acted in the name of white supremacy, while woke acts in the name of Social Justice. Obviously woke culture is a lot lot lot less violent of KKK. KKK were criminals. With woke culture at maximum you will do some years in prison due to false accusations, because you should "believe all women", or you will loose the job, and you will never find similar jobs, for some nasty comment you done on some platform when you were a teenager... It can be compared also to McCarthyism.

In any case, the negative part of woke culture is the fanatism. Without the fanatism aspect, I will call a woke, an activist into social justice themes. I like activists. I'm scared from fanatics.
