   Calling something “woke” is just a way to avoid proposing real solutions or doing anything to actually fix problems.

   Racism? It’s those “woke” schools and colleges!
   Bank failures? “Woke” board policies!
   Oppression of LGBTQs? It’s “woke” culture’s fault!

   Stay woke, friends.

     @georgetakei "Woke" is just the new socialism. It's a reactionary boogeyman word the right bandies about with zero knowledge of its actual meaning.

     @georgetakei Calling someone "woke" tells waaaay more about the person that states that than the person they address with it.

     @georgetakei Woke means awakened to the needs of others. To be well-informed, thoughtful, compassionate and kind. Eager to make the world a better place for all people. Stay woke everyone.?

     @georgetakei it is interesting how Regressives need a pejorative for everything.
