RE: Ghost or Substack? 🦝

I see it in precisely the opposite colours. Being woke to me means being intolerant of any other viewpoint and a demand that everyone else come round to their ideological viewpoint or risk cancellation, losing your bank account, or violence. It's the #nodebate angle that I cannot and will not support.

Sort:  

That view seems to assume that woke is one thing with rules when it's just an attitude. You could say that Jesus was woke for preaching tolerance, but some forms of Christianity seem to be the opposite. As I said, word meanings can be twisted.

Yeah, you're right about meanings' being twistable. It's probably a word that I will try to avoid going forward.
