"Get over yourself and your ridiculous white grievances."

They're just trying to rile up their base and make "wokeness" (which actually refers to tolerance, enlightenment, acceptance of others different than yourself, and kindness towards your fellow man) a horrible, frightening word that they can use to turn people against each other. I am sick unto death of these so-called Christians who totally ignore the words in the Bible unless they can twist them to suit their hateful beliefs. "Love they neighbor as thyself" is totally meaningless to them. These people are the worst!
