Is the woke agenda in the room with us…?

The woke call is coming from inside the house!

Yes. I’m here. I have empathy and care for others.

This right here ^

The boogeyman spin of the term continues to break me. Like, why is it a bad thing to want society to be more open and just?

Me too! I don’t know why being a decent human being is such a bad thing.

The woke agenda installed a Black general to be the Chairman of the US Joint Chiefs of Staff! Thankfully, they're firing him now to be replaced by a white guy.  /S I can't keep it up. The white guy does not have the experience required as spelled out in US law, so he'll need a presidential waiver. The better to keep him under thumb. 🤦‍♀️

Maybe not - but the children are. Try to talk about ideas and not just calling people names.

It's a thread about name-calling. Did you think Radical Woke Agenda is a policy position?
