Woke definition: "Woke is an adjective derived from African-American Vernacular English (AAVE) meaning "alert to racial prejudice and discrimination"."
DeSantis is against being woke, which means he is in favor of prejudice and discrimination. Sounds like he wants to roll back the Civil Rights Act of 1964: "prohibits discrimination on the basis of race, color, religion, sex or national origin."
Notice that part about "sex." Woke has come to mean more than being alert to racial prejudice and discrimination, but prejudice and discrimination of all kinds. And this includes against not only LGBTQ people, but women too. That would take us to the 19th Amendment, ratified in 1920, which allowed women the right to vote.
If you're against woke, then you want there to be prejudice and discrimination. And that would include discrimination against women. Roe v. Wade, anyone? Think they won't do it? Think they won't try to allow legal prejudice in certain states? Think they won't say it's in the name of Jesus? They are already doing it. And they want to do more.
