I was asking about the "woke BS". What does any of your screaming and ranting here have to do with "woke BS"?
I think you are a bit lost in the thread. This article and the quote of "woke" that I'm referring to is what Maher said. He said: "‘I warned everybody about Trump, and then I warned them that I warned them about what would get him reelected, which was stupid wokeness, which is what got him reelected,’ Maher said."
I'm not sure if you are looking for a "gotcha" moment by trying to get me to say what I feel is "woke" or not "woke." But I'm not a Republican so I'm not sure what point you're trying to make.
I think you know what kind of policies and decisions are considered "woke." And the US let you know they aren't cool with it anymore.
What I personally consider "woke" doesn't matter. I didn't vote for Trump or Harris. I voted third party, friend.
And knowing how everything turned out, I'd STILL vote third party. Happily.
Thanks! :)
I really don't. You're saying the Democrats lost because of their policies of "Woke BS", and yet somehow you can't name a single one of their woke policies.
What I saw was the Democrats running on a platform of "status quo, everything is good enough, and big businesses are great" all of which is far from "woke".
It would be a lot easier for you to put me in my place by naming any "woke BS" the Democrats were running on than your paragraphs on paragraphs of avoiding the question.
Oh, I can name a lot of woke policies. If you don't know what woke means as it relates to politics, then I can't help you. Good luck, friend!
Okay, then do so. It would actually help a lot in letting me know what woke means as it relates to politics.
Again, if you don't already know that, then there's nothing I can do to help you, because that would mean you are entirely clueless.
The Dems lost the election because of the exact same attitude you are showing in this thread. LMAO
Seems like in your 2 paragraphs there you really could have "shown me wrong" by simply naming 2 policies instead.
It's not my job to educate you on something that everyone else seem to know about. The Dems lost the election because of the exact same attitude you are showing in this thread.
So clearly "Woke" is just a vague boogy man term. You've wasted a ton of effort trying to avoid a straight answer, it would have been far easier to just state any "woke" policy.
I can tell the stress of avoiding it is starting to get to you too, you've stopped thanking me!
I haven't wasted anytime. I'm simply not here to help you do research. You actually do know what woke means in this context. You're just looking for someone to argue with.
The Dems lost the election because of the exact same attitude you are showing in this thread.
lolol you think an ignorant lemmy conversation is stressing me out?! Say wat mate!?
You know what woke means. You know people consider woke. And you're pissed off that Trump won and now you want to argue with someone about it.
I didn't vote for Trump. I voted third party. Feel free stay mad. Woke goes broke. Thanks, friend! :) :)
It would be impossible to have a more pathetic life than you're living right now
Man, you're still really mad that you couldn't get me banned from Lemmy, huh? LMAO
I'm having a great life! I get to spend all day posting whatever I want, wherever I want. And you can't do anything to stop me! It's awesome!
Thanks, friend! :)
Double smiley faces, you're really trying to cover up how upset you are.
There is a reason you refuse to name a single woke policy the Democrats ran on. That reason is either:
I know you're never going to give an answer, but just be honest with yourself as to what your reason is. My guess is it's all 3.
I'm not upset at all. You do realize this is my community, right? I could just ban you or remove your pointless comments from this community if I were upset.
I'm just under no obligation to prove anything to you. And I know from the beginning, you have been trying to have the #3 "Gotcha" moment with me. And I said so, in the beginning.
And you're mad because I refuse to play your little game.
I didn't write the news article, friend. If you have a problem with it, you should write to the publishers of that article. Thanks! :)
And if there was any other reason then "not playing my game" would have meant just giving a reasonable answer. Your continued refusal to do so proves my point and plays right into "my game".
I don't owe you anything. You have an agenda because you're mad that Trump won.
I didn't vote for him, friend, so go be angry somewhere else.
Of course you don't.
For someone who doesn't owe me anything you did spend a lot of time replying and trying to defend your decision to not answer a simple question though.
Seems like it would have been faster and easier to either answer the question or not bother replying.
Because you kept asking. So I kept replying. I know you really, really want it to look like you win this argument. But there is no argument--I'm not going to explain anything to you. Since your first response, you have wanted me to say something so you could accuse me of something.
Trump win. Democrats lost. Everything. Get over it, friend.
I didn't write the article. I just posted it. Thanks!
Why do you keep saying that? I've said nothing about the article and have been asking you specifically about the "woke BS" you were complaining about.
You sure do post a lot for some who doesn't want to say anything or be responsible for anything they post.
Because this whole discussion thread is about the article. Do you realize how Lemmy forums work?
Oh wait! That's right. You don't care about the article, you're too busy trying to catch me saying something that you think shows some sort of bias, so you can scream "See? See? This guys thinks that..."
Damn, sorry I didn't give you that satisfaction. Oopsie!
I can post anything I want, anywhere I want, anytime I want. I don't have to answer to you or explain anything to you. And you can't silence me. That's what's so great about Lemmy and the fediverse!
If you don't like it here or the articles I post, feel free to block me and/or this community, and feel free to write to the author of the article, friend.
Thanks! :)
Did I say you can't post something? You seem to have a real chip on your shoulder, ready to have a fight defending yourself from things I've never said.
I didn't say you did. I'm just letting you know that regardless of what you think of my posts, I won't stop. Your opinion did nothing to change my mind. Not that hard to understand. Thanks! :)
Honesty is this bitch's kryptonite. They are absolutely a trolling loser piece of shit
Awww, still mad you couldn't get rid of me?
I'm. Still. Here.
And you can't stop me. I didn't write the news article, friend. If you have a problem with it, you should write to the publishers of that article. Thanks! :)
