Being Woke means being aware.. Knowing whats going on in the community

(Relating to Racism and Social Injustice)
Person 1: Stop bringing racism into everything
Person 2 : Your clearly not woke

Funny they must be talking about themselves as they bringing racists to everything from Obama to the street thungs.

More lib/dem projection. It explains everything they say and do and think.

It wasn't easy for my ancestors and they were “white.” Life was tough and my ancestors were looked down upon. However, they worked hard assimilated and two, three generations later, life is much better.

Stagnation is due to the people not assimilating or the disintegration of the family. Two major factors the people conveniently ignore.

Can some millennial out there explain what "bragging about being woke" means?

There's also a connection to the movie The Matrix, wherein the hero is given a choice to take the blue pill and stay in sub-conscious simulated lala land, or take the red pill and wake up and see reality for what it really is. So, "woke" and "red pilled" are similar terms.

Uh, you “woke” up to the fact that you are blessed with white privilege? Just a SWAG. Of course to these assclowns, you’re awakening (woke) is probably another micro or nano aggression and bigly racis’. There is NO winning scenario with them.

"Try to recognize that America was never 'great' for anyone who wasn't a white guy,"

Ok, time to change the tagline back....I am so sick of this crap.

So MTV accidentally got that one right: no white male should brag about or aspire to being "woke" because it's a sucker game ... nothing you say or do will ever make up for your whiteness and maleness.

Oh, but they’ll argue that their intentions were good, because they were only trying to lift up the “oppressed”. But you don’t lift up one group by pushing down another group. That just creates resentment, which leads to even more problems. What a bunch of dummies!

I think they saw oppression one time. From a helicopter maybe. These genteel snowflakes(aka: ungrateful snots) haven’t got the slightest clue of what actual oppression is.

And they have little grasp of what true racism is.

Sooner or later they businesses in this country will suddenly discover that they should not piss off or piss on the MAJORITY OF THEIR CUSTOMERS..........................

MTV has two revenue streams. They are paid by advertisers trying to reach their millennial viewers. They are also paid carriage fees by cable customers, as part of the "bundle" of channels offered by their cable company.

I have not viewed MTV since the early 80s. But I was still one of their customers due to my cable bill. A few years ago I slimmed down my cable package to a "skinny" bundle. (This was shortly after the MTV awards/Miley Cyrus debacle). MTV, along with ESPN, HGTV, Commedy Central, and the Disney Freeform channel are no longer coming into my home and I am no longer paying for their left wing programming.

MTV executives had no understanding that I was a customer, and they should not be actively trying to offend and insult me.

I saw that video and well, it made me queasy because it felt like something you'd hear out of the Snowflake Generation. No wonder why MTV pulled the video off YouTube and well, Paul Joseph Watson of Infowars.com ripped it to a zillion pieces.

It’s the easy way to fool people into thinking they are being uplifted by pushing down those that they feel are oppressing them or those whom they are jealous. Damn, I finally figured that part of the Left out.

I’m woke to the idea that Americans need to start working together more especially against the totalitarianism of jihadis.
