Wokism Thread

Took me a while to understand your first paragraph -- maybe the auto-carrot kicked in?

But yes, one aspect of Wokism is: "Everything about you, your lifestyle, and your mindset is wrong, but I'm so tired of trying to educate people like you that I just can't be bothered anymore."

Not sure I understand your second paragraph either -- is there a word or two missing?

Here's a popular one, at least in the States:

"Only white people can be racist."

[This is probably moving to Debates, soon, isn't it?]

Post only woke statements, opinions and questions on this thread, please. [Even if you aren't woke or don't like the whole woke thing, whatever it is exactly.]

Living in Indonesia, as I do, I have not been marinated in wokism and anti-wokism, as I might well have been if were back in the UK, so I will do my best, whilst hoping to learn [deductively] from the woke things people say on this thread.

You should know there are more than just people from Indonesia and the Uk on this site fmf. 😉

"I feel ashamed to be writing in English, but it's the only way to get through to you, you stupid monolingual tool and beneficiary of the oppressors, lounging around comfortably in your Anglophone [that means English-speaking] entitlement."

(P.S. -- that was not meant as a reply to Chris -- we were just typing at the same time -- hoping the quotation marks make it clear I'm being ironic.)

C. S. ....I want you to know I came very close to alerting this post.

Why? Is it the topic of this thread that you don't understand, or just irony in general?
