The Emperor does not forgive wokeness

[Zeriel00]

Warhammer was the last Bastion of non woke non purple haired SJWs talking about their genders and pronouns. Since that has come to an end it's time to vote with your wallets. I know most gamers don't want political propaganda in their games and just want to have fun in the lore that they have enjoyed for decades. Since these companies can't produce entertainment anymore because they have an ESG social woke score they have to keep to promote THE MESSAGE. It's time to move on, play older games you haven't touched from your library, or Japanese games. This is what the emperor would want.

They can silence this thread, but the followers of Slaanesh will never win! God Speed Space Marine!

100%! Until the woke sickness is purged, and I mean they apologize and commit to not doing it, they get nothing.

Bets on how long until this thread is deleted?

Didn't you guys try to invade the Trench Crusade community in the wake of the Female Custodes fiesta (because GW "betrayed you") just to get told you're not welcome over there either due of the toxicity you guys exuded?

Could have sworn you guys literally only just joined their community and started trying to call any one who didn't think like you a "tourist" (despite having zero idea about Trench Crusade's lore).

Just to note, the founder of Trench Crusade is Tuomas Pirinen, who also worked alongside Rick Priestley and Alessio Cavatore in his early career (the founders of 40k). Let that sink in.

What does 'woke' mean?

It varies depending on if it is directed towards a person or business/product. While woke people tend to be hypocritical, narcissistic as they believe their cause is just, in reality it is oppressive and authoritarian towards those who are not a subscriber to that invasive subculture.

In this case it is towards a business or product. So it has to do with pandering to that subculture that seeks to completely take over the greater culture. From forced language to over representation. Entertainment that is woke tends to be poorly written, inserts real world politics in a way that it is out of place, gender swap, race swap, etc. all for brownie points or the ever desirable Twitter now X back pats.

He asked what the official terminology of 'woke' is.

Not your personal interpretation of it.

True, I asked a.lab but I guess WastingSanity won't even recognize this fact xD

Ok, what's this "official" meaning of WOKE then?

40K was meant to be satire not a role model.

And, finally, after the attempted co-opting of the word by Right-wing Pundits as a Catch all for things they don't like (inclusiveness, diversity, sexual orientation (not adherent to heteronormative think-train), etc)

Originally posted by The pundits' idea of 'Woke':

By 2020, the term became a sarcastic pejorative among many on the political right and some centrists in Western countries, targeting various leftist and progressive movements.

Breakdown —

It officially means inclusiveness, the education of and awareness of the social and racial prejudice issues, gender identity, sexual orientation, sexism, social inequality, and the denial of the rights of those of said minorities (including gay, lesbian, trans, and bisexual individuals).

It was later bastardized as a sarcastic pejorative by Conservative types and as a consequence, hardly any of you actually know what it means.

All in all, if a person hates the concept of "woke", and use it as a catch all for anything they dislike, any one intelligent enough can immediately recognise "this person is an *sshole" or is at best, "a dumb*ss".

40K has already been "woke" at the start.

Sounds like you've just sugar coated what the other guy said, but thanks to your last statement you've completely burnt the coat and proved him right, lol. I'm done.

Nah she nailed it. Don't be upset.

A personal interpretation of a Conservative Tradcath =/= the Official definition of 'woke'.

Just take the L and move on.

Funny, you try to go for a gotcha moment by giving me a really generalized "official" explaination that just says that it means awareness. You cut off all the parts of this definition that would damage your point but unfortunately you forgot this

Originally posted by Official meaning of the word 'Woke':

And it took very little to me to read that the meaning of this word soon degraded and is now used to refer to the behaviour the other guy explained, not like I needed to read it to know this.
Unfortunately for you, the behaviour that has been connected to that word is no longer the one you wish it was.

It's also pretty funny how you try to come up as someone who hates prejudice, but instead you come off as really prejudicial, like when you said this:

Originally posted by Black Magic:

and when you automatically assumed the guy who gave the definition before was a "conservative tradcath". You seem obsessed about this a lot and I don't think I care enough to waste more time in a never ending argument like this.
