Amen. I am certainly not woke. I don't care about the whole pronoun thing at all.Guys, I gotta be honest. If y’all knew me on a personal level, most of you would certainly classify me as “woke.” It’s funny that I don’t generate memes and very seldom make responses that take other people to task for their views. And yet I get called out for not laughing at particular memes from certain members because I don’t find them funny? So in truth, yeah, I find some of them a bit offensive. But feelings are hurt because I didn’t “laugh” at their meme, and then the lightbulb goes on and they’re like, oh damn, he’s woke. But let’s look at the reality, at least here in our little microcosm. I don’t push “woke” down anyone’s throat, or up any other orifice. It’s really ironic that such a huge percentage of posts here expressing some sort of cultural righteous indignation are posted by heterosexual white males who often (and in some cases constantly) whine and complain about “woke” people, gay/trans people, etc. and are outraged that a gay or trans person might be drinking the same brand of beer as them? I think it’s silly. Because who really cares, and why would you? If simply being tolerant and respectful of people of any race, lifestyle, preference, or religion makes someone “woke” then I guess I’ll own it.
I also don't care what other people do or say or want to be, as long as they aren't criminal or outright bothering me. Live and let live.
