Lifting the RACIST veil behind the term "WOKE".

[Silent3]

17. I think you, and also some people who will fiercely disagree with you, are missing...

...something important about the flexibility of language by usage and context.

The word "woke" is both the good notion of being aware of privilege and prejudice, of fighting for rights and justice, and it is a slur in the mouths of the right wing, at the same time.

"Woke" is both an appropriate response to the injustices of our times, and it is also an obnoxious game of virtue signalling, at the same time.

Only context will make it clear how the word should be taken. If you insist that there's only ONE TRUE MEANING, and deliberately ignore context and what a person using the word might have meant, you'll only foster pointless miscommunication and misunderstanding.
