Is "woke" the new "that's satanic"?
In the early 2000s everything the "trads conservatives and christians" hated was satanic...

Now it seems the same people that got offended over a dull things such as pokemon are now getting offended over non violent cartoon for toddlers, not sexualized women and non-white people in their movies, are we going backwards or are just they a loud minority online? Because the people I interact with irl no one really cares about that.

In Mexico we have no discrimination laws, you can't get fired or have your service denied for your color of the skin, religion, gender, sexual orientation or ethnicity is not that you are forced to like someone, is that they tell you shouldn't hate on others for things out of their control (such as race or gender) or things they are associated with (religion for example) of course this won't apply if someone, for example a christian, goes into a nightclub and begins to preach to people against their will.

We have laws in the US to enforce the same thing - In hiring practices, It is against the law to discriminate against someone for the race, gender, sexual identity, etc..

It is not illegal to "preach to people" but it is certainly against the law to force or constraint them to listen to you and a private business has the right to eject and refuse to serve anyone they wish. It is not legal to harass people in public spaces or be a nuisance, but such persons can use public spaces if they wish for the purposes of formally saying whatever they wish, within reason (they can't call for violence), if they properly apply to the local government to do so.

Those are certainly a lot of words but they are not making a coherent sentence, puritans are the ones mad at people and media recognizing there are non-heterosexual people for example, a pretty puritan thing .

I don't see how Marx fits here tho
I prefer expression, over coherency. If you refine a sentence too much, it loses it's meaning and soul.

I'm not on the side of the puritans either ~ don't expect me to be defending them. By most metrics, I'm anti-puritan.

But here's a question. How many people calling everything "woke" would stay quiet if pornography were banned? I assure you, not many.

The anti-woke movement isn't a moral movement, either. Nor is it from conservatives, exactly. It's mostly people who just want to enjoy normal pieces of fiction

A Marxist spirit lies behind what the radical liberals are saying, on this matter. Many of whom make these threads, and reply to them.

No. If anything, it's more comparable to foolish restrictions put into place, and somebody screaming as loud as humanly possible "1984!"
LOL

Then why haven't I seen any threads here about how several US states are now trying to heavily restrict access to pornography on the internet?

Common sentiment on Reddit, among all sides. Dunno, guess it's just not a thread you'd want to make ~ you'd get blasted with sarcasm if you tried.
Majority of Satanists/hedonists are probably on the left

Many Leftists may pretend to care about a lot of issues and about virtue, but its pretending.

At the end of the day it may be gimmie my free money, my lack of laws that let me steal and do crimes without getting locked up or have to pay for bail, lower standards with dei without regarde to who they may hurt

Well of course it is on Reddit, they're all addicted to porn.

Seems more like easily influenced people running around screaming like freaks. If they wanted to enjoy normal pieces of fiction, they would just do that instead.
They do, for the most part. But when something involves money, culture, and politics, there's no way people won't voice their opinions on literally everything relevant.

Well, so anyway...what was your point about anti-woke people speaking up against a theoretical pornography ban? That they're also chronic masturbators?

I think we all knew that.
The right sure got upset over the target thing, specially when they believed a satanist was behind the clothing.

The point was that I believe a lot of anti-wokesters are libertarians, the opposite of puritans in many regards.

If you ask a puritan to explain why something's satanic, odds are they'll toss you a Bible.

If you ask one of the so called "Conservatives" to explain why they're anti-woke, they'll give you a whole speech on corruption, bribes, and politics in the gaming industry.
No, it isn't the same. This is made clear by the fact some people never stopped calling various things "Satanic." They were doing it before all this "woke" business. While those people would currently call some "woke" stuff "Satanic," there are also lots of people complaining about "woke" stuff who would not think of things in the same way as the people who go around calling stuff "Satanic."
I hate the right banning stuff, parental controls exist for a reason.

Libertarians? Oh, oh no...I see, now that really explains so much about everything. Thanks for clearing that up.

And I guess you consider yourself a libertarian?
