This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

The way people use the word, I feel like it's not crazy to have woke as a synonym for "something I hate" coming from someone using it as a derogatory term

[–] SkyezOpen@lemmy.world 13 points 1 year ago (2 children)

That's what it means. Ask anyone who uses it unironically to define it.

Woke is anyone that's trying to be sensitive towards, or at least aware of, the feelings and attitudes of any group I don't immediately identify and sympathize with.

....

Damnit, I'm using ironically, aren't I?

That is exactly what it means, another empty rghtwing catchall term like PC and sjw, and it says a lot about you that you are using the term at all (and nothing at all about the people you are using it derogatorily against).
