They've got a point!

Thanks to the commenter who reminded me that it's not bad to be reminded that the term is only a pejorative because conservative racists made it so.
Reminder that woke was originally used as a positive term.
Still is if you aren't a twat
Nowadays I prefer the term "correct".
I honestly don't see people using "woke" positively these days.
That’s because most of us just call it what it is: empathy.
But they’re trying to make that a pejorative too now.
well.. sure yeah. My point still stands about "woke" though.
Also a reminder that woke is used negatively by the same people who cannot tell the difference between badly photoshopped letters and a gang tattoo.
I think it's wild that the word 'woke' entirely replaced the selective outrage on the 2010s over "CRT," a bogyman that most white conservatives still cannot define.
My stupid ass: "why did the conservatives have an issue with Cathode Ray Tube TVs?"
Lol, yeah that was constantly the problem I had back then, especially since MAGA was using "CRT" as the scare word, and not nothing to mention that it means "Critical Race Theory," a phrase well in-line with other subjects in other fields, like Biblical Critical Theory.
Because super smash brothers is woke
Fuck yeah it is.
See also: politically correct (PC) and social justice warrior (SJW)...all just fancy ways to call someone a commie pinko bleeding heart socialist. The Red Scare never really stopped, and neither did the Lavender Scare
Twas an obvious superimposition of letters to (likely) lie about the meaning of the tattoo, no?
Know MANY people saw:

After seeing pixels over years I saw:
Obviously the fact that you & 66 others just in this thread, and hundreds or thousands online are upset about the superimposition, indicate it was stupid/dishonest. Sigh what else is new w/current admin!
That was depressing. I knew our president was dumb, but I still didn't think he could be that dumb.
I struggle to understand how you guys in the US missed the signs. I mean... stuff like "they are eating the dogs" should sparkle some doubts, right?
No reminder needed for me, but for those who might want to do a deep dive:

What's amusing is that the Wikipedia article traces its origin back to the Republican Party.
