For those of you who think "Woke" is an issue and dangerous to explore.

You are correct. If you start to become woke, you might eventually start caring about others more than yourself and you might even start being a person that deserves to be called human, or Christian or decent, or aware, or compassionate or empathetic or intelligent. Till then, I am glad you are voting as a Democrat, but your wishing that more Democrats were like Manchin means that you and I won't be seeing eye to eye on a lot of things.

In a sane world, the woke thing would not be a thing, but Democrats selling out to greed and racism while becoming Republican light has not helped the planet, the nation, and anyone ever who was not already too rich to need any more money. You clearly loved the DLC or would love it now. When you look down at being woke, be careful, your privilege is showing.

4. "Awakened" is good. I also use "Enlightened" and "Understanding". But no matter how

we describe it, Woke People are the Fascist's most dreaded enemies and they'll stop at
nothing to destroy us.

... being woke seeing it was an appropriated term by black people for our use.

9. The only people I ever see using the term 'woke'

and usually complaining about it, are old white guys.
