Embrace the word "woke"! I think it was a mistake for the Right to center their 2024 platform on this word.

Instead of simply ignoring the word when it comes up, disassociating yourself with it.....take it on!

I'll bet that if you didn't let the Right interpret it for you...which they can't anyways....and instead of trying to distance from the word, wear it, interpret it for yourself, and show how out of touch Rs are with their own Cancel Culture and bigotry.
