Though it’s really not much different from the accurate “have woken up to.”

Apparently I’ve been “ woke” since the start of Reagan’s first term.

Kind of like “fake news”, the media coined only to have it used to describe their reporting.

I turned off TV news shortly after I discovered FR. Haven’t cared what they have to say since.

This article nails my thoughts as well.

I assume all leftists are my mortal enemies and want me dead, or at least enslaved. That includes all Hillary voters, all Barack Hussein voters, and all Jeb voters. Perhaps I’m wrong about a few of them, or not, but it makes no difference in how I will or should respond to them.

The only debate I will engage in with America’s enemies on the Left is “no” - a short response to whatever tirade and demands they may launch at me. I will do what is right without regard to their ever escalating demands or claims of “science” (as in “men belong in the little girls’ restroom because ‘science’”).

They hate you. Govern yourself accordingly.

Word to the wise.

I love this guy.

Lefty: “You’re a racist.”

Me: “Okay. I’m a racist. Your move.”

Watch head explode.

“Oh no, they called us sexist! Better do what they say to prove we’re not!”

Better waste a LOT of time explaining _____________!!

They ain't gonna read it anyway!!!

Not taking them seriously really triggers them into phrases like “F you you Nazi B@stard!”

OOOOH!

I'm gonna use this tactic in FR's Religion Forum!!


Oh; wait...

About time, too - they've stolen "Liberal" from us, so it's way past time for payback.

DON we now our gay apparel...

Okay. I’m a racist.
At least I’m not a thief.

I argue with liberals a lot on a couple of sites I go to that allow it. I’ve had the “don’t care” attitude this article articulates for some time. It drives them absolutely bonkers. I mean, I have become a ban magnet on one site. That is, they get so angry that they can’t shake me that they end up creating posts that get them temp-banned.

It’s great sport. :)

Yeah. It’s true. I don’t like the term “woke”. It’s a lefty term.


So was “fake news”. At first. :)

“Me: “Okay. I’m a racist. Your move.”

I prefer “OK, you claim I”m a racist. I don’t care.”

He’s playing to the the_Donald reddit crowd. His language is taken right from that reddit sub. Millenial conservatives who call themselves autists. Evidently, they’re all on ‘the spectrum’, most likely according to their public school. Thinkers getting labeled for not conforming to common core/diversity etc.

Not a bad article, with one MAJOR, disgusting, stupid use of the ghetto misuse of the word woke; which is a GIGANTIC off putting thing!


Know your enemy, including their vernacular...
