It's a catch-all stand-in for 'person I don't like'. Just like how the far right uses 'snowflake' or 'cuck', and how idiots of all political persuasions use 'nazi'.
Eh, no. It's a real word with a real definition that has been around for a very long time.
I mean.....
You realise you're doing that exact thing......
Right?
Wrapping it up in a "But I stand for what feels right" taco, doesn't change the underlining behaviour.
I'm just not spreading hate at the same time as derailing, and that's something that really can't be understated. Boiling it down to 'all positions are the same' does no one favors except the hateful.
Yes, it obviously is, but it is not being used in that way here or in the examples I mentioned. The people using it as a hostile pejorative don't care about what its definition is, only that it is a way of tarring people you don't like and shutting down debate.
I suppose they're not derailing, no, but I would disagree with the notion that's they're not' spreading hate'. Lumping anyone with a possibly legitimate criticism in with literal bigots is fairly hateful.
And here I was led to believe that is what the terrm "woke" is referring to these days.
Interesting. Thanks. Just saved me $80 CDN. Glad I looked at the discussion forum first.
It's literally authoritarianism 101. Anyone with half a brain would know that these "enlightened wokesters" are really just the byproduct of useful idiots who ironically suffer their condition from a lack of breadth and understanding of human history.
Honestly, the best thing you can do is mock them and their ideas and have a good grasp on world events. Pick a contradiction in their world view (there are many, literally just pick any topic they talk on) and demolish them with actual knowledge.
Also, ironically, these useful idiots are dying to prove their moral superiority to others because rather than their interest being on self improvement, internally they seek to subjugate and control others by means of their rhetoric. In short, they're charlatans.
