Elon Musk tweeted "Imagine a new all-powerful woke AI"

i'm honestly not sure which belief is more brain-dead: that anything that is woke is bad, or that all-powerful AI is a credible threat

Woke is just another meaningless label to them. It's the same as liberal, or BLM, or antifa, as in they don't understand what it is, but they hate it. Then they just call whatever they don't like by one of those labels and their dogs all go rabid. Bunch of fucking sheep...

They've appropriated it to mean what political correctness meant in the 90s.

They're using it to shift accountability for the bile they spew from them to the accuser.

It’s basically like the euphemism treadmill. The words they keep using will eventually lose its power so then they move on to the next thing.

Like Political Correctness was replaced with Politics as in “Keep politics (aka non-whites and women) out of my vidyagames” then Politics became Woke.
