Whether woke is good or bad depends entirely on how it’s defined. I generally see it as an antithesis to ignorance. So a combination of both educated and rational thinking.
Sometimes it describes things that are educated and irrational thinking, which is ironically what the right does a lot. Basically fear mongering.
Then you just use the two interchangeably to make it sound like rational observations are radical.
Well, your first definition is the original one. The second one is the disingenuous one conservatives use. They did the same thing with “social justice” and “political correctness”. Conservatives never come up with anything or good, they just ruin shit.
Oh I know. But even then they’re intentionally inconsistent so the good and bad gets mixed in together.
“some people suck”. That is the unfortunate truth of any society.
