      It’s this political cycle’s go-to boogyman word.

      I would love someone to use it in front of me as a pejorative just so I can ask what it means and watch them squirm.

        I’ve done that. Twice.

        Both times they just dodged a direct answer and just started naming off stuff they didn’t like.

        I’ve had this happen, went with “woke? you mean understanding that there is injustice in the world, and we should probably fix that, whats wrong with that?”

        Didn’t say anything after that. Don’t mess with my happy when i’m on my honeymoon ffs!
