The rise and fall of the "Anti-Woke" industrial complex

Just a note that they did not “make” this up, though. They more often redefine terms, such as how socialism has been redefined to mean the worst aspects of 20th century communism. Woke existed as a term well before Fox news discovered it. There is evidence that it goes back to at least the 1930s (Leadbelly used it, for example). See this thread on this issue:

There is, though. It just means being aware of racism (and other forms of oppression) as you go through life and to participate in tearing that down. I suspect many know what the term means, but refuse to acknowledge that most people would embrace that idea when presented with it. So instead, they turn it on its head and pretend it means “oppressing white people” - which, is not what it means.
