Thanks to the commenter who reminded me that it's not bad to be reminded that the term is only a pejorative because conservative racists made it so.

Saying a person is woke is like saying they are not a mindless sheep going through life asleep at the wheel.
Yeah seriously I'll never understand how it's an insult. Conservatives call having empathy "woke" and I'm like "yes, yes it is woke. Your point?".
it's basically everything you need to know about them
But they call people on the left sheep? How can this be true? /s
