I was watching a show on Netflix and I was really interested. I went to the Netflix profile to see if they would do a second season since the show was a success. It turns out that in the comments, several right-wingers called the show woke. I watched it and didn’t see anything woke in the series. The protagonists are black, but what’s the problem with that? Maybe that’s why they said it was woke? The show is new and original with new and original characters. Isn’t that what they wanted? It’s confusing for me, because if they’re going to complain anyway, why are they asking for changes?

    Right wingers will call anything woke. It’s meaningless and they can’t even define the word. To them, woke is any non white character or non straight character. I’d consider what they think meaningless because these people are empty shells.

      I don’t believe you. I listen to lots of right wing commentators and I’ve never heard this claim.

      Are you sure that’s something that right wingers do, or is it just what your left wing friends told you that right wingers do.

      Like … do you ever listen to right wingers speak? To get direct knowledge of what they believe? Or is it all hearsay?
