If the supposed to be "woke" people quit calling things like math racist you may have an argument but the Transportation Secretary who certainly considers himself woke called tunnels racist a few days ago so maybe it's the woke that need to make the adjustment not myself.

I'm sorry, but your argument does not make since. It does not matter who says it and how it's said. What matters is the context in which it's said.

Watching the news and political figures weaponize the word does not make it any more than what its true intent is/was.

Let's not get upset when a race uses a term for a good purpose. Again, somehow "Woke" got twisted into something evil. Is that b/c people of color are the primary use of it and therefore it seems frightening thus others must then demonize it? Why is that? Sincere question???

Why is it an issue for people of color to be aware of inequalities that surround them and work hard to bring injustice to light? Should they simply just allow such things to occur unspoken?

Is it really an issue to have a state of enlightenment. To be self-aware; intentional with actions and choices?

Why is this true definition of "Woke" so misused by others attempting to associate it with all things ugly?
