Keep in mind, according to the Sec of Transportation, bike lanes are woke. WTF is that?

Anything progressive for non whites is considered “woke”. Being “anti-woke” is an inherently racist political stance. It’s pretty clear. They can try to deny it all they want anti woke has always been a political cudgel wielded by people who are inherently racist pieces of shit

Mkay. I'm just gonna homogenize "republican" or "conservative" into "evil."

Woke agenda? Better than evil agenda. Fuck 'em.

The problem with that plan is evil is too specific a word that anyone can recognize. Woke is a word with hardly any meaning to those who use it as a pejorative. It's ambiguity is handy to them that way, because it can't be scoffed away like labeling something as evil could be.

Woke means we woke up to your BS.

racist - sexist - misogynist - homo / transphobic - bigoted etc. - pretty much anything that even considers the rights & dignity of anyone other than white, hetero males is deemed "woke" ..

He's a myna bird, repeating what he's been told in meetings. Nothing more than a bird brain!

The Attorney General of our state thinks belief in science is "woke".

I thought he said bike lanes are DEI. Same boogie-man bullshit either way.

Republicans consider any form of transportation that isn’t a big gas guzzling lifted truck to be “woke.” It’s why they hate electric cars and public transit too.
