Hahahah that's what they want you to think. Woke is from like the 60s. Do some research on it. It's pretty interesting.

Actually in ancient etruscan...

... person meant mask. If you call someone a person, you accuse them of playing a role. Fact.

are you saying you're woke on the subject? I thought it was from rap culture.

[–] dragonfucker@lemmy.nz 7 points 10 months ago

It's from black culture. You tell your friends to stay woke so that when the cops stop them for no good reason, they remember to treat the cop like a wild animal and be careful around them. If you're black and you treat a cop like a human being, you'll get shot. So you gotta stay woke.

Yeah he thinks it means whatever the fuck the American fat right media says it does.

Don’t you dare fix that typo.

Especially when they get co-opted by Euro-Americans.
