fightoffyour Posted April 2 VT Supporter Share Posted April 2 Diet coke is woke, as are most gay folk. But is egg yolk woke? Or an inoffensive joke? I can tell you who isn't woke - clearly that bloke. Come here and have a toke, I think it's time we spoke. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimmygreaves Posted April 2 Share Posted April 2 I wish all this bollocks would go in the bin. Of the 2 main camps, people need to stop pretending to be offended and on the other side people need to stop being utter dicks. Shit it all! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It outs the throbbers nicely. Yeah I agree. The same as people using "gammon" or "snowlflake". Makes people sound like 12 year olds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Angry people started calling people snowflakes for being offended, to which the snowflakes retorted by calling them gammons. The gammons then started getting offended by everything and have thus now become snowflakes themselves. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Main difference being Snowflake and Gammon were created as derogatory terms. Woke most definitely wasn't, hence it making me smile when it's used that way. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jonesy7211 Posted April 2 Share Posted April 2 How is woke defined? It's something I've never really understood. I understand it to be a term that defines someone as socially conscious, opposed to inequality, and generally not excluding people based on their circumstances. If I'm wrong, please enlighten me. I think the people that use the term as a negative have a very different idea of what it is, but I don't understand that. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cultural Marxists that are trying to diminish our identity, reduce the white man to bottom of society and herald in a new era of Islamic/Sharia law ran by gays and men dressed as women. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the way those people see it they consider it ‘pandering’ to a minority at the expense of the majority. Though there are probably as many definitions as there are people with grievances.

Bloody hilarious, keep em coming! The best bit is that they get offended by everything, and at the same time believe everyone else are snowflakes who are easily offended This guy on fb is an endless supplier of ridiculous hot takes from the hard of thinking world. He needs social media to tell him every day what he needs to be angry about This on 22nd March and then this 1 day later 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keyblade Posted April 2 Share Posted April 2 It kind of shows how incredible (for better or worse) the internet is. In just a few short years the word mutated from being something used almost exclusively among African Americans, often tongue in cheek ("Stay woke" was a funny joke for a while), to an overused pejorative among middle aged British people and everyone in between.
