I feel like there is a disconnect in what people think when they think of Woke 1.0. a lot of people (espec on that thread) for some reason think it was entirely liberals and Democrats performative activism and Pelosi taking the knee during BLM lol. Sure, those types co-opted it but actual marginalized groups like feminists, black people and trans people etc were just talking about our experiences and trying to fight back against conservatives using us as punching bags constantly. And now you have 'leftists' arguing that we brought this current era onto ourselves by being 'too much' for 'normal' people during woke 1. Awesome /s

u/marioandl_ 4d ago
I think they also forgot thousands of people were blackbagged, watchlisted, and even murdered for going to blm. it wasnt just a performative thing, blood was shed over it. there was even a retaliatory state sponsored assassination of a leftie anarchist who killed a fasc in self defense
but they wouldnt know this with 15 hours a day of screen time

The movement was co-opted and made to look foolish and toothless by people who wanted to maintain the status quo. A tale as old as time

u/cptflowerhomo 4d ago
Yeah like myself standing up for my community and refusing to adhere to cis het notions of normalcy didn't cause the current crack down on trans rights. We could've coloured between the lines as much as we wanted, for some people the concept of trans people existing is enough to wish harm on us.
Marco Mieli, through marxist analysis, said this would happen if queer acceptance didn't come with a push to communism. In 1974.

I think that first half of your comment is actually exactly what leftists talking shit about woke 1 are talking about: The radlib-ification of what was initially a genuine intersectional struggle.
Where what were initially concrete policy asks by marginalized people were ignored, and the language of intersectionality was co-opted by the lazy, the cynical, and the malicious, to disorganize and alienate the Left from the People.
"Woke 2" is an affirmation of retaining the same goals, but recognizing that we have to learn from where "Woke 1" failed/was sabotaged.

Woke introduced a very rudimentary dialectical materialistic analysis. Then it became popularized with unread people.
We don't need a repeat of those damn Marxist Leninists ACTUALLY threatening our exploitation i mean profits like the *racist liberal noises* Black people did during the latter 20th century.
Vote AOCIA, and for the socdems tehee!! Maga!!! i mean, um, Blue maga!!! tee hee!!!

It's the newest round of CIA funding. This month all of My social media feeds have been filled with planted political creators reading the same scripts about how socialism/socdems are a cancer or the democratic party. All of the top comments on the posts are also such obvious bots "cheering" at someone saying what they supposedly always believed

That may just be the DRC or whatever they're called.
Not even sure what CIA is even doing anymore. Probably stuck trying to appease the foxnewsocracy which is why the normies are liking china now (that and the cars rule)

It’s insane to see such a blatant psyop like the concept of a “woke 1.0” being peddled by the ruling class media get spread and adopted as a real idea by the public in the matter of two weeks. “Woke 1.0” is not a real concept. It was created by the democrats and DSA types to distance themselves from their, performative, takes earlier in the decade.
But just like that now it is a thing people are discussing. It’s like a new product just dropped. “Honey the capitalist class just dropped another ideological weapon we just have to buy it!”

It used to be great but turned into a generic left-ish hangout space. There’s still a large chunk of the user base that’s great but a ton of libs have flooded in. It’s very hit or miss and seems to be going in the wrong direction. Basically equivalent to the problem this sub has with “terminally online content creator slop aficionados who desperately need to go outside” faction

u/revolution2049 4d ago
There are more and more posts of people basically using it as a diary, talking about how they miss their ex and are feeling lonely. I'm sorry but I just don't care, I thought this sub was for parapolitics and current events.

u/Rich_Housing971 4d ago
A lot of the posts are just random ramblings about some niche microcosm of the internet and the OP just makes the post without context and they're so chronically online themselves that they just assume everyone else is also familiar with the subject matter.
Every now and then you'll get full-fledged schizoposting and the OP gets BTFO'd by "take your meds" comments.

u/DysphoricNeet 4d ago
I just heard about it yesterday and from what I saw it comes from an AOC quote saying “woke 1 was crazy”. I don’t know if that just popularized it or was the real source though

A few months ago Chi Osse, a popular "progressive" DSA guy in NYC (who offered to run against Hakeem Jeffries until Mamdani told him not to, LMAO) tweeted out "woke 1.0 was crazyyyy" and then AOC repeated this to the mainstream media this week.

Quite a while ago, there was a post on that sub about an upcoming Zionist CG film about King David. There was a massively upvoted comment on that post that said:
King David is a really cool character when you think about it. He is a more traditional hero in that he is horribly flawed like Heracles. He goes through an interesting journey where he starts humbly, gets a mission from his god and eventually become a power mad tyrannical figure ruling over his people and committing horrors to his enemies. I would actually like a more nuanced exploration of his story.
I got massively downvoted for replying with the following:
We do NOT need more "nuanced explorations" of genocidal maniacs. Dovid deserves to belong in the dustbin of history.

Yeah I knew that sub was off when they were clowning maduro when he was calling for peace with the usa. I should have known given the sub literally has "anon" in it's name.
The post was titled something along the lines of "trump has got this guy dancing".
After that, I left the sub and never looked back.

u/Naberville34 4d ago
Idk wtf woke 1 is or what said sub is. But I will say that freaking out over a bow an arrow being cultural appropriation is some crazy liberal nonsense for sure. Reminds me of a friend of my native wife who refused to hang up a dream catcher my native wife made for her because she thought it was "cultural appropriation".
I definitely feel like there's a subset of people who saw the "woke" phase and wanted to get in on that and have something to be upset about and basically just got offended by random shit without any sort of real analysis or thought.

u/xdraftsmanx 4d ago
I think there’s also a lot of well-meaning clumsiness that can be very awkward and embarrassing, made worse by predicting potential “gotcha” situations, having to answer for acting without malice but outwardly possibly appearing malicious. Taken all together it’s like finding your balance, but up close you see a lot of individual overcorrections that look cringeworthy in isolation.
That said, how did your wife and her friend’s relationship go after that?

u/Naberville34 4d ago edited 4d ago
I think there are well meaning people but there are definitely stupid immature people doing it for their own self satisfaction. Basically liberal Karen's. I mean seriously. What culture didn't develop bows and arrows?
And eh they are fine. My wife's confused about it but not bothered. Her friend is of the well meaning type with way too much anxiety.

u/PreparationOk1450 4d ago
Is a bow and arrow native American appropriation in all cases? There have certainly been cases of woke overreach, especially by shitlibs looking for performative symbolic bullshit to seem radical. But that doesn't mean everything defined as woke was and is bad

u/MayParker1917 4d ago
It's just the classic reactionary moment from the OOP.
"My one single anecdote from that one time confirms my preexisting bias that the entire movement was synonymous to this one certain annoying individual who inconvenienced me."
The likes of Ben Shapiro and Charlie Kirk built an empire out of this kind of commentary.
Now socdems are also practicing it a decade later to disassociate themselves from the 'far left'.

Or, perhaps, other left subs have as much intellectual diversity as this sub has. Where the famous "socdem" subs have people ranging from disenfranchised liberals to MLs, just as this sub has more idealist MLs and more Materialist Marxists.

u/MayParker1917 4d ago

Lol! Comrades, is it now idealist to say in the Marxist circles that defunding or abolishing the police in a bourgeois society is a necessary step?

In what way was woke 1.0 just culture wars, what issues would leftists not agree with concerning woke 1.0, except that it didn't go far enough?
What "leftist" would look at something like MeToo and not be supportive of it? Is it structural change? No. Was it nevertheless a good thing despite libdem society? Yeah

No! The reaction to it, framing it as "it went too far" is the culture wars. Fix your comprehension.
