WOKE AF

In recent years, being “woke” has become a term that is often used in a derogatory manner, suggesting that individuals who are “woke” are overly sensitive or politically correct. However, the reality is that being culturally “woke” is essential for promoting a better understanding of social issues and promoting positive change.

The opposite of being “woke” is being asleep. If we are not paying attention to social issues, we are not actively seeking to understand the experiences and struggles of others. This lack of awareness and understanding can lead to ignorance, prejudice, and a lack of empathy. By being “woke,” we are acknowledging the existence of systemic injustices and working towards a more equitable society.

Being “woke” doesn’t necessarily mean that we support any particular solution, but rather that we are aware of the problems that exist. For example, acknowledging the existence of systemic racism does not mean that we support any particular policy, but rather that we are aware of the problem and seeking solutions.

It is worth noting that many of history’s most significant figures were on the bleeding edge of “woke” culture. Martin Luther King Jr., Harvey Milk, Susan B. Anthony, Thomas Jefferson, and Abraham Lincoln all fought for the rights of marginalized groups and worked to bring about positive change.

There are forces at work in our society that want us to be ignorant, to be asleep. These forces seek to take advantage of the system for their own gain. It is essential to be informed and aware to prevent these forces from succeeding. It is okay to have different political views, but we should all want everyone to make informed decisions, especially when it comes to voting.

Being culturally “woke” is not about being overly sensitive or politically correct. It is about acknowledging the existence of social issues and working towards a society in which we don’t ignore social injustices. To be informed is to be “woke,” and we should all seek to promote understanding and positive change in our society.

Stand up against the people who want you to be asleep.
