[QUOTE="Julia's Gun, post: 420701, member: 987"] People who use the term 'woke' to label those they misunderstand/disagree with. It's origins lie in fighting racial prejudice and creating a more equal society. Such a shame it's been twisted into a term of abuse in recent years. I refuse to use it in any debate or discourse as I know it will just pull me down a rabbit hole fighting someone else's ignorance. Like other pejorative terms (Zionism, 'illegal' migration, the undeserving poor) it's very difficult to have constructive debates with people who resort to labelling and othering those they disagree with.
