  1. If being referred to as Woke is an insult, is it not an insult to be labeled as Anti-Woke? And isn’t it ironic that black men coined the word “Woke,” and now white men use it “liberally” as an insult against the “leftists?” WOKE … The phrase was uttered in a recording by Lead Belly and later by Erykah Badu. Following the shooting of Michael Brown in Ferguson, Missouri in 2014, the phrase was popularized by Black Lives Matter (BLM) activists seeking to raise awareness about police shootings of African Americans. After seeing use on Black Twitter, the term woke became an Internet meme and was increasingly used by white people, often to signal their support for BLM, which some commentators have criticized as cultural appropriation.

  2. Those of you who wanted Donald Trump to overthrow the government, wanted to be the ones to also overthrow the government, so that you could dictate to others the new set of rules. Don't deny it ... because that is what you were, and are, thinking. You liked his bombastic style, simply because that would be your style … if only you had the power.
