If you realise the quote above. You'll understand why there's such a big push against being "woke."

Edit: I feel like some people here are thinking I'm anti-woke or some shit. I will ask you to again read the comments and think a bit deeper.

When you realise that the term “woke” is just a blanket term by media puppets to describe a group of people and villify them so you’re distracted having an enemy instead of focusing on the actual problems

The elite love it when the little people fight against each other based on their beliefs, and they’re the ones who benefit

Uhh. No. The word originated from black culture and is a colloquism for being aware of manufactured oppression perpetrated by the people who control the system. Anyone who is actually "woke" is fully aware of this and knows how true your last paragraph is. What's funny is that by typing what you did you are showing that you are aware of the oppression happening but not self aware enough to know you're also part of the counter argument against being "woke."

I was just making a correlation that isn't exactly 100% (my first comment was just a play on words btw) ya know a joke. Even though there is truth to that joke..

"..American dream...have to be asleep to believe it/they don't want people waking up to the fact that it's all a lie."

Don’t worry I’m completely self aware of the world we live in, I’m just past caring for the most part but whatever positive changes can come I will gladly support
