@athousandyoungsaid Those people don’t post on this forum. At least half of the meme of wokeness is a straw man coming from the Right. You’ll notice only your people are posting in this thread.
I’m an individual, your people should think the same. I’ve spit on them, kicked dirt in their faces, and on they have no answers and they, you know it. Answer my statements or explain your ideologies and this statement of blaming others.

I don’t understand what you are saying and asking.
You are an individual. By this are you objecting to my use of the phrase “your people”? If so why do you then talk about “my people”?
Are you suggesting I am “woke”? I never use that term myself.
Abraham Lincoln was supported by the ancestors of ‘wokeness’. They were Yankee Republicans who used the term ‘awake’ in a similar way to the modern use of ‘woke’ to refer to awareness of racial injustice in society.

Please describe it for me and for the heck of it how about your 10 commandments.
Here are 6 historic principles of the ‘woke’:

Typical Wide Awakes chapters also adopted an unofficial mission statement. The following example comes from the Chicago chapter:[8]
To act as a political police.
To do escort duty to all prominent Republican speakers who visit our place to address our citizens.
To attend all public meetings in a body and see that order is kept and that the speaker and meeting is not disturbed.
To attend the polls and see that justice is done to every legal voter.
To conduct themselves in such a manner as to induce all Republicans to join them.
To be a body joined together in large numbers to work for the good of the Republican Ticket.

In early March 1860, Abraham Lincoln spoke in Hartford, Connecticut, against the spread of slavery and for the right of workers to strike. Five store clerks, who had started a Republican group called the Wide Awakes, decided to join a parade for Lincoln, who delighted in the torchlight escort back to his hotel provided for him after his speech.
The standard Wide Awake uniform was full robe or cape, a black glazed hat, and a torch six feet in length to which a large flaming pivoting whale-oil container was mounted. Its activities were conducted primarily in the evening and consisted of several night-time torch-lit marches through cities in the northeast. The Wide Awakes adopted the image of a large eyeball as their standard banner.
Abolitionist “Wide Awakes” Were Woke Before “Woke”
“Now the old men are folding their arms and going to sleep,” said William H. Seward while campaigning for Lincoln, “and the young men are Wide Awake.”

I’m talking about this new breed and now. Care to be serious?
This is about trying to understand individual’s๐ who make up the woke cancel culture. Who they are, what influences them, while looking for similarities that lead to this creation.
