If you think punching Nazis is woke, what do you think that makes you?

[-] Glytch@lemmy.world 33 points 1 month ago

Correct. Thinking that makes me correct.

Objectively so, even! Also a moral duty!

[-] Glytch@lemmy.world 16 points 1 month ago

That's what Captain America taught me

[-] latenightnoir 2 points 1 month ago

Buying War Bonds is my moral duty, got it!

Woke. We should reclaim that word, given it came from a good place to begin with.

Thank someone who calls you woke, it'll probably piss them off, or at a minimum cause confusion.

He really literally is Woke, though. In the way reactionaries mean it, too.

He's a working class socialist refugee journalist who fights corrupt billionaires, sociopath AIs, and genocidal tyrants. He's educated, open minded, egalitarian, and forgiving. He's a (French style) libertarian internationalist, a diplomat, and proletarian hero. The model progressive liberal.

Literally has the power to crush or make slaves of any human he feels like, instead does the very opposite and tries to save weak and puny humans from those who would do it.

That's literally the opposite of the kind of personality that's attracted to things like Fascism.

First PBS, now Superman. Maybe it’s time to realize they just grew up to be shitty people.🤷‍♂️

Surprisingly Santa hasn't been woken yet.

[-] Swedneck@discuss.tchncs.de 6 points 1 month ago

he travels the entire world in two (maybe 3? idk if any country has christmas outside of 24th/25th) nights, of course it's going to be impossible to wake him from his torpor the rest of the year!

Superman has always been woke.

[-] qaz@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

I feel that was more before, like seen in the second image. The current version feels more commercialized and less "political" than before.

These are the same people that called Mrs. Rachel antisemitic.

It's like Invasion of The Body Snatchers: "It blinked! WWWWWOOOOAAAAAAAAKE!!"
