They won’t be satisfied until we are all appropriately woke to their struggles du jour,” Dan Gainor told Fox News.

Mr. Gainor isn't resisting the left very well when he adopts their inane, vile language like that. What a stupid use of the word "woke." Step One in trying to beat them down is to NOT fall into their trap of defining the language. As soon as you use their language, you are helping them set the agenda.

I’ve been completely unplugged from Network and Cable since June 1. Reading books, internet news, and listening to selected radio stations. Don’t miss it one bit.

Agreed. I refuse to use their nomenclature. Using the word "homosexual" instead of "gay" produces a very uncomfortable response in people. This "woke" is another example of something I refuse.

OTOH, when I hear someone use it, I get a lot of information about that person in that one word. Tells you all you need to know. It tells you what they subscribe to.
