Much like Blowprah in the old days, heavily skewed to female.
Wow… I’m culturally deprived. I’ve never seen a single episode.
Most don’t understand the term “WOKE” came from the tea party movement circa 2009.
FreeRepublic is “WOKE”.
It was misappropriated by the left, as is everything.
The left is “Joyfully Beaten into Submission by their Masters”
Their not so much WOKE as WATERBORDED.
You’re a better person for it!

Married white women are conservative. Unmarried, not so much.
It is true, that there are different senses of the term as applied by different groups to different ends, and the idea of “woke” can be basically summed up as thinking you really, really know how the world operates while everyone else is asleep.
But to say the very concept of wokeness using the name began with the Tea Party is in error. It may have been the first time you heard a context agreeable to you where the word was used in that way,
But the term’s use actually goes back much earlier, and predictably involved the ancestors of the current crop of race grievance hustlers, who were likewise somewhat less virulent believers in race grievances.
I say “less virulent” because race grievance hustlers have historically been a victim of their own successes. By this I mean that as they get enough people to agree with them they create more race grievance hustlers and those often want to get paid for it too.
… Dang, I’ve been watching a bunch of Fact Hunt on YouTube and as I’m writing this I’m hearing Guru Larry’s voice! But I digress…
So anyway, new grievance hustlers have a problem, and create one for old grievance hustlers too, in that to get paid for their hustle they’ve got to turn up the fire under the frogs, so to speak, and that means pushing the boundaries of outrage, feelings of oppression, and all around keeping people unhappier and angrier than they would be otherwise.
(Because happy and content people don’t need folks to keep them unhappy, meaning they tend not to be eager to pay them … one reason I believe why race hustlers invade the clergy and seminaries … they could get paid even when the bads they were really selling were still not making bank.)
By the 1970s this had created mobs of perpetually race aggrieved nitwits who … whew, finally back to my own internal voice! … were willing to burn down their own communities having finally been pushed over that hump of indoctrinated stupidity by new waves of race grievance hustlers now openly adopting Marxist mind-****s.
It’s taken decades of Ivory Towers producing rivers of crap to finally get white idiots to hate … well: themselves and produce the modern Woke movement.

Yep, you’re right...trillion!!
Progressives want to manipulate the truth about history, because it goes against their quest for power. The reality of history is that blacks did not end their own enslavement, nor did they end the Jim Crow laws. White people acting on behalf of blacks ended both practices. And it was the white Democrats who opposed those efforts.
