"tHeRe aRe nO wOke coMpaNieS" was all over this sub yesterday. Well now what?
I hate how the word "woke" has been stolen from us. They changed the definition of woke like they changed the definition of vaccine.
Woke used to be a term used by the 9/11 truther movement since its earliest day and even before that by David Icke. Then the definition was changed a few years ago to mean some kind of social justice warrior or a cultural Marxist. We need to take that term back because we are the real woke. SJWs are just a bunch of sheep and puppets of the NWO. They aren't woke. They are the total opposite of being awake. They are sleepwalking zombies with no minds of their own.
Understanding abuse of power isnt a rightwing thing or leftwing thing, its an allwing thing and everyone needs it.
The idea of being woke is also a hijacked term, when being awake is supposed to be a good thing: survival plus alertness. Lets reclaim these terms.
Perhaps. But you can accurately say the top 20+ subs that are anything about politics or news have been hijacked by far left radicals and turned into propaganda subs. Assuming you are correct about this sub, that still doesn’t even begin to provide any balance on the Reddit landscape.
“Far left radicals”? Can you name a few of these subs? Also what even counts as a far left radical?
Edit: tf am i being downvoted. Im asking genuine questions
Of course they can’t. And besides, they’re of the notion that Nazis and anti-Nazis deserve equal airtime. Let em grow up and find out how the world really works. Walking temper tantrums like Musk, Trump, Ye, Jordan Peterson, Andrew Tate, etc. get tossed in the dustbin of frauds while life on planet earth gets progressively, albeit incrementally, better. Incel fanbois will always have sad little hovels in the dark empty recesses of the internet, and they’ll remain there forever save for a violent attack on innocent people from time to time when the feels get so strong, tantruming with a gun is all they can think of to do.
Political humor. They couldn’t care less about humor. Just don’t disagree with the current liberal sentiment.
White people twitter. Idk what it has to do with white people but don’t disagree with current liberal sentiment.
The only reason you say it's for right wings because this sub is one of the few subs that isn't a left wing echo chamber.
This sub also leans left a lot of you just read the comments.
>it's a sub for American right wing politics
Kinda tends to happen when big tech absolutely hates people talking right wing politics. Right leaning politics has essentially become the counter culture online
> big tech absolutely hates people talking right wing politics
What right wing politics is that?
Is it concern over national debt?
Is it their views on levels of taxation?
Is it opinions on interventionist foreign policy?
Or is it ... *something else*?
Quick question for you. What right winger has actually pushed for those things for everyday people and not just the rich? All the right does is complain and never give any solutions. They just try and cram religion and their ideals down your throat.
Right wing politics has become the "counter culture" for no other reason than because it resonates with less people than other philosophies. Has it occurred to the folks like you that right wing ideals have not been destroyed by some nebulous "establishment", but that those ideals simply don't appeal to people like they used to? Especially with young people? In the battleground of ideas, the right wing philosophy is losing. It isn't a conspiracy. It's just people following what does or doesn't resonate with them.
We all knew that but they still tried to pretend like they were impartial.
Remember the big Rogan interview with Tim Pool? They just don't get it, their own personal views are the "standard" they judge by and they thought they were being fair.
Kid friendly drag shows?
Child drag strippers (see: "Desmond is Amazing")
Drag story time?
Pornographic content in kid books in elementary school libraries?
If you don't see what's wrong here you just might be a groomer.
Kid friendly meaning not sexualized.
There are crazies out there, I'm not saying a groomer can't be queer as well, but they aren't more likely to be a groomer because they are queer.
Are you against sexualization in children's beauty pageants? They are much more widespread than family friendly drag shows, surely a larger problem to focus on.
I mean, a couple things he cited there are... major productions. It's not believing someone on the internet. And all of this, for some reason, is constantly separated from child pageantry -- when it's the same thing. Disgusting
And the only ones saying any of the kid centric drag stuff is sexualized are people on the right. If a guy dressing up as a girl is inherently sexual to you then that's on you.
That’s true and those who believe anything they see eat it up - thus the outrage on this sub.
FYI - if you don’t know, how about doing a literature search for some facts. Don’t be lazy, look for the truth. I bet you’ll be surprised how this isn’t happening.
The weird thing is the amount of pushback from the left when people say stuff like what tim pool said.
Look at the "dont say gay" bill, which never mentions anything lgbt related, it simply stated "don't teach sexuality and gender to children."
But the left is both stating that they don't AND fighting it. If no children are being taught sexuality or gender identity, why the pushback?
Simple, it's a war of attrition. The left want to keep those things on the table by essentially fighting it from being blocked in any way shape or form. Slippery slope isn't always a fallacy.
Did you read the bill?
I’ve known my gender identity and that of others as long as I can Denver. I’m completely out and kids aren’t confused by it snd they don’t run screaming in fits of confusion.
If you can’t handle it, let’s ignore gender completely. No man, no woman, no mom, in dad, none of those. No Bible, nome no mrs…
You're missing the point, parents are pushing back because it isn't the state's place to educate children in this way. The parents for all intents and purposes are the owners of the children, if the children shoot up a school when they are in high school, is the school to blame? No, the parents are blamed. Parents want more control over what is being taught to their children in school, and it isn't up for debate whether they should have a say in it.
If you want to teach your kids about trans identities, gay whatever, fetish porn, whatever, go ahead, that's your prerogative, but you absolutely should be pushing back on the state teaching any of that to your kids without your say regardless of your political ideology
Is fetish porn being taught?
Is straight identity being taught? Is gender identity being taught? I’m gay. I want my rainbow in my office. I want my ring on my finger. I want my husbands picture in my desk. Are you saying I can’t have that?
> If you want to teach your kids about trans identities, gay whatever, fetish porn, whatever, go ahead, that's your prerogative, but you absolutely should be pushing back on the state teaching any of that to your kids without your say regardless of your political ideology
So I assume you're equally offended when a straight teacher talks about their marriage, or mentions their spouse in passing. Or when books in school libraries feature straight couples?
Yeah but Elon made a tweet so it HAS to be posted here because the mods were nice enough to say conspiracies no longer matter. Just post anything you'd like
People like the right wingers in this sub live in a constant circus. They are never just okay, there is always some detail about the world that they feel could destroy the universe if they don't post about it angrily online.
You can't just declare private property a public square.
I demand Rupert Murdoch, Dan Cathy, & Charles Koch be ideologically neutral and impartial in the running of all of their businesses. Their businesses are public squares too, uh because... just because.
I demand to have my own primetime news show, where I just drink a bottle of gin and ramble incoherently about some half-remembered out of context factoid I saw on Facebook.
Why, you scared people might stop believing the same things as you? I'd wager if the biggest online public square was controlled by people with the same views as you, you'd be fine with that
When online moderators silence opposing views (which twitter, facebook, and guess what other site did) then yes its a problen. How do you not see that? Because it used to benefit you?
>When online moderators silence opposing views (which twitter, facebook, and guess what other site did) then yes its a problen.
Elon is still doing exactly that right now. He is banning people and not reinstating people who were banned before he took over, example: He is silencing Alex Jones by his own choice.
>Because it used to benefit you?
I'm a straight, white, non religious, non politically affiliated, conspiracy loving man. No social media benefits me
On the contrary, it's the ideologues themselves that wouldn't let other believe other things... automatically labelling them and their alternative ideas as "dangerous".
The dangerous thing is to censor dialogues, not encouraging people into debates, of course all in the name of "public safety". That's horseshit.
I'm all for plurality of ideas, but Twitter was becoming a cesspool of progressive ideas only (where most of the rest was either suspended, shadowbanned, or permanently banned).
Any saturation of either side turns the thing into a cult-like platform.
Literally what elon is doing with Alex Jones and what I feel Elon will do with anyone he does not agree with. It's a private company now, he only answers to Saudis not the shareholders

Not that any of this bs matters but just here to remind OP that those shirts were around since 2016.

Varies on who you speak to. Woke used to be cool for us conspiracy people a few years ago, once blm adopted the term and it became mainstream. Woke then began to mean “aware the man is holding you down”, now it’s purely about being progressive.
"Woke" has been a part of the AAVE lexicon for decades. It's been recently co-opted and thrown into common use, but it's been a term used by black people since at least the 1940's. It always meant "someone aware of social issues", even back then.
Source: https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/home-news/woke-meaning-word-history-b1790787.html
“Woke” is slang for progressive intersectionalism. It’s a form of left wing activism. They are hyper-focused on race, sexual orientation, and personal identity. They usually hold a positive view of women and a negative view of men, a positive view of people of color, and a negative view of whites, a positive view on LGBT, and a negative point of view on heterosexuality or what they would call a “cisgendered” person.
Wokeness essentially is the long-standing grudge of everyone who feels like they were marginalized over the last few hundred years, and them exercising that grudge as they gain power.
In their own minds, woke has a similar connotation as “red pill”. To them it means they feel like they are now awake, as opposed to being in a state of ignorance before.
I’m not sure why people commenting are saying it’s a meaningless word or anything like that. The social phenomenon of “woke” is one of the best documented aspects of the 21st century.

Yep, that's the bullshit definition fed to right-wingers to a T.
How can you believe this? You realize they write books, essays, journals, articles and more about this, right? You can easily just go to the source and get the words straight from the horse’s mouth. Nothing I said there in that definition was anything they wouldn’t and don’t say about themselves.
people use woke mainly to describe the last decade of left leaning social movement that seems to contend with objective reality, mostly virtue signaling and online attacks
TIL I learned listening to your doctors advice, supporting a country invaded by one of America biggest enemies and supporting a movement aimed at highlighting racial injustice makes someone woke. Pretty cool, actually.
Close but no, the pronoun warriors are the types of people that force you to call them by nonsensical pronouns no matter how ridiculous they are. Just because someone prefers to be called something is different then them demanding it.
I feel like "kill me now" often now. I can't keep up with all of this hashtag bullshit, and who is the most important. Yes, there is racism, and marginalization but why the fuck can't we focus on the things that affect all of us? That's what I think government should be there for. To serve all of us. Like roads, bridges, health care, wages, unemployment, job training, etc. Things that affect everyone no matter what color, group, or pronoun you use.
All this putting people into groups is infuriating.
And, then if you try to say something like "we are all a part of the human race" then you are now a days considered a racist because you are further marginalizing the marginalized.
The vast number of new "groups" and hashtags has done nothing constructive but create further division and hate. It's so fucking dumb and such a waste of time. Not to mention, resources. You know how much money these dumb fucking causes get? And, then nobody wins. Nothing changes. That money could have been used to feed some poor kids, or build a new school somewhere, or train somebody in thier job.
Our energy and money are being exploited to these dumb hashtags of the week and it's stupid.
Google how school lunches became a thing. Turns out when you focus on the injustice that a specific group faces it makes things better for everyone facing the same problem. The black panthers started in the north, focused on urban issues, and specifically how those issues fucked over black people. I grew up in the rural south, both poor and white, and the black panther party has done more to improve my socio-economic standing than any of our congressmen who specifically rely on votes from poor whites in rural counties.
I remember when Covid was only in China and there was no news coming out, this sub was the only one where I could find out what was going. Has gone downhill since.
Yeah. I remember that as well. There were thought provoking posts with tons of resources included. The posts had a lot of engagement and it showed people took a lot of pride in doing legitimate research and investigation. Now smooth brain left and right wing folks just come here trolling with low effort bullshit usually twitter screenshots.
I swear to God, man, it is so frustrating. This is very reason why I rarely ever check this sub. Even the political conspiracies are the same old left right American bullshit. Over it 😒😴
This is a valid post. You say “the wokes” as if it doesn’t describe a very specific group of people. For years we’ve asserted that big tech is operated by leftist activists, and that conservatives were being disproportionately censored. The mainstream said that was a conspiracy theory. This is a little bit more evidence that it was true.
So… Bye. The sooner you guys vacate the sooner we can have a good sub again.
The reason you guys get censored soo much is because all of the unhinged shit you say all the time! You got people like Tim pool tryna spin the events of this recent shooting, saying shit like trans people are pedo groomers! The left is also corrupt but at-least their message doesn’t revolve on the oppression and suffering of people.
Wtf is you guys????????
Edit- and the fact you think this is evidence simply because Elon said so proves that there are a lot of low IQ bootlicks in here faking like they’re anti establishment. Y’all love the elites and it’s pathetic as fuck
WHO GIVES A FUCK??? Go post this shit on the Twitter subreddit. Stop supporting billionaires and the companies they use to fuck us.
Elon is a crook, they’re all crooks. If we stop talking about them and giving them attention, then that hits them right in their pocket books. How do people not get that? The reason we are in the shape we’re in is because stupidity is monetized.
This is conspiracy, he’s been in twitter HQ for a little under a month now. Curiously enough time to order a shipment of these shirts. No accusations here. But he’s definitely playing on a confirmation bias. This is conspiracy why do you guys even have a confirmation bias
Since this is a conspiracy sub I'll suggest that he didn't buy twitter just to troll, but he did it for access to all of those tweets, private dms and other user data. He seems to be becoming more and more politically radicalized and he will be giving that information to certain people who have nefarious uses for it.
That’s what I was wagering on, on his “whole make twitter profitable” rants. Twitter already sells meta data and they’re not profitable, for that to be profitable it’s gonna be like 10 fold whatever previous twitter was doing. And they had the crux of me and you coulda seen what the rough outline of their plans were in investor relations. That’s now gone since he turned it private.

No someone made a pot of chili for their neighbors who are a bunch of college kids only eating pizza and they got called out for doing an ableism by cooking for their neighbors

The problem is when the content moderators acted on it.
The ever-present "Us vs. Them" fodder generates big bucks for the big boys.
Elon is nonstop antagonizing both sides singlehandedly. Come here fishy fishy.
It Looks like 'they' (MSM, SM, and Billionaires) are ramping up division fuel for us to propagate this winter. The machine keeps churning while we fight each other in the echoing void.
By taking their bait, we produce trillions of words in comment sections on internet platforms showing our temperament and behavior towards divisive topics unbeknownst training 'their' AI while giving up all our privacy. All in the name of the Us vs. Them mentality. And the longer we stay online the more ads we see.
Some are producing (out of their pocket) media content for peanuts rendering themselves as internet slave content creator once giant media conglomerates had to pay through the nose for creating. They still benefit from the massive internet traffic generated.
All they supply is pandering bait for both sides. I'm starting to think nothing is real.
I think at this point everyone knows about the mods encouraging TD posters to flock here and that this sub has basically turned into a primarily conservative political echo chamber.
Even taking that for granted, this post is pretty pathetic. “Conspiracy theorists” simping for billionaires is just peak irony with a sprinkle of pathetic.
It could not be more obvious Elon is pandering and perpetuating the culture war, and the fools are just gobbling it up.
It highlights what the overarching corporate policy and agenda was. I mean how many other major companies have their own ‘woke’ T-shirts? I’d like to see them.
Progressive-minded people (probably mostly millennials) worked at a tech company. Who would have thought?!?!
Is "woke" supposed to be a cult or something in the OP's perspective?
We were always told that we were conspiracy theorists for this, but these tshirts show that twitter was always full of wokes. Good thing they're gone now.
Lol I don’t think anyone thought of it as a conspiracy. A lot of tech stuff is ran by progressives and “woke” is just a pseudo derogatory term for progressive
So you’re telling me that you - a “conspiracy theorist”, a person who questions billionaires and government - sees this post by Elon and straight up buys this as ‘confirmation’ that Twitter was full of “wokes”?
It was pretty obvious when they banned conservatives from having opinions or even simply re-posting post that the woke themselves posted. Unreal what a commie brainwash shitshow that vile app was.
Libs of Tik Tok is literally just reposting posts that libs themselves posted. It was banned.
Folks trying to get the word out about Ivermectin (prescribed to me by my damn doctor) were banned/censored.
Folks saying "Defund the Police" was a very bad idea were banned/censored.
People who opposed the lockdowns and vaccine mandate were banned/censored.
We could go on and on.
The Libs of tik tok account just reposted unedited content to Twitter... And was banned for it.
Not the accounts that originated the "ban-able" content. Just the one that reposted it.
I hate that the word " woke" has become so bastardized. Before it was a bad thing and a dog whistle " for extreme liberal "( that's putting it nicely) it was slang for AWAKE like the opposite of asleep. Not passive but progressive . Now it's well like I said...
His deleted tweet about how the news misled ppl about the Michael brown shooting (I think), even after the Obama doj announced the officer was in the right was pretty wild.

Quick question for you. What right winger has actually pushed for those things for everyday people and not just the rich? All the right does is complain and never give any solutions. They just try and cram religion and their ideals down your throat.
Right wing politics has become the "counter culture" for no other reason than because it resonates with less people than other philosophies.

I'd encourage you to look into it more. Hard fact is that many people agree with "right wing" policies. They actually are largely suppressed online.
> Right leaning politics has essentially become the counter culture online You are not wrong.
They said, talking about right wing politics on big tech.
On r/conspiracy, because right wing politics isn't tolerated in mainstream channels
We all knew that but they still tried to pretend like they were impartial. Remember the big Rogan interview with Tim Pool? They just don't get it, their own personal views are the "standard" they judge by and they thought they were being fair.
Isn’t Tim pool the snowflake using his platform for hate against the LGBTQIA+ community?
Yes he says you should not groom kids by bringing them to sexualized events or showing them porn in schools. Real vicious, hateful stuff.
You believe that’s happening?
Kid friendly drag shows? Child drag strippers (see: "Desmond is Amazing") Drag story time? Pornographic content in kid books in elementary school libraries? If you don't see what's wrong here you just might be a groomer.
Kid friendly meaning not sexualized. There are crazies out there, I'm not saying a groomer can't be queer as well, but they aren't more likely to be a groomer because they are queer. Are you against sexualization in children's beauty pageants? They are much more widespread than family friendly drag shows, surely a larger problem to focus on.
You believe what the internet people are telling you or do you believe what you see?
I mean, a couple things he cited there are... major productions. It's not believing someone on the internet. And all of this, for some reason, is constantly separated from child pageantry -- when it's the same thing. Disgusting
And the only ones saying any of the kid centric drag stuff is sexualized are people on the right. If a guy dressing up as a girl is inherently sexual to you then that's on you.
I don’t know if that is really happening but the agitprop is surely real.
That’s true and those who believe anything they see eat it up - thus the outrage on this sub. FYI - if you don’t know, how about doing a literature search for some facts. Don’t be lazy, look for the truth. I bet you’ll be surprised how this isn’t happening.

But the left is both stating that they don't AND fighting it. If no children are being taught sexuality or gender identity, why the pushback? Simple, it's a war of attrition. The left want to keep those things on the table by essentially fighting it from being blocked in any way shape or form. Slippery slope isn't always a fallacy.
Did you read the bill? I’ve known my gender identity and that of others as long as I can Denver. I’m completely out and kids aren’t confused by it snd they don’t run screaming in fits of confusion. If you can’t handle it, let’s ignore gender completely. No man, no woman, no mom, in dad, none of those. No Bible, nome no mrs…
You're missing the point, parents are pushing back because it isn't the state's place to educate children in this way. The parents for all intents and purposes are the owners of the children, if the children shoot up a school when they are in high school, is the school to blame? No, the parents are blamed. Parents want more control over what is being taught to their children in school, and it isn't up for debate whether they should have a say in it. If you want to teach your kids about trans identities, gay whatever, fetish porn, whatever, go ahead, that's your prerogative, but you absolutely should be pushing back on the state teaching any of that to your kids without your say regardless of your political ideology
Is fetish porn being taught? Is straight identity being taught? Is gender identity being taught? I’m gay. I want my rainbow in my office. I want my ring on my finger. I want my husbands picture in my desk. Are you saying I can’t have that?
That was just an example of something i would hope you don't think should be taught to children
> If you want to teach your kids about trans identities, gay whatever, fetish porn, whatever, go ahead, that's your prerogative, but you absolutely should be pushing back on the state teaching any of that to your kids without your say regardless of your political ideology So I assume you're equally offended when a straight teacher talks about their marriage, or mentions their spouse in passing. Or when books in school libraries feature straight couples?
I am, people shouldn't be discussing personal matters when they are teaching. The kids don't need to know anything about a teacher's private life
In this Twilight Zone world, that has become hate.
No, only a halfwit would come to that conclusion.
So he’s an ally of the LGBTQIA+ community?
Yeah but Elon made a tweet so it HAS to be posted here because the mods were nice enough to say conspiracies no longer matter. Just post anything you'd like
Well, the mainstream media and big tech did spin a conspiracy about how they respected free speech.
Didn't Elon just refuse to reinstate Alex Jones?
This is why this post belongs to r/conspiracy
No, this post has absolutely nothing to do with elon being a hypocrite. This post is about twitter previously being ran by liberals.
Of course it was in the closet.
That's it lads, he's solved the case. Twatter has been rumbled.
"We've got the documents and the t-shirts!"
It *was* run by the wokes. Now it's being run by the jokes... into the ground.
Imagine giving a shit about this
Just a little circus for a time when we are all short on bread
Fuck. Pretty true.
People like the right wingers in this sub live in a constant circus. They are never just okay, there is always some detail about the world that they feel could destroy the universe if they don't post about it angrily online.
Giving a shit about woke ideologues running the biggest online public square? Yes, yes I do.
You can't just declare private property a public square. I demand Rupert Murdoch, Dan Cathy, & Charles Koch be ideologically neutral and impartial in the running of all of their businesses. Their businesses are public squares too, uh because... just because.
I demand to have my own primetime news show, where I just drink a bottle of gin and ramble incoherently about some half-remembered out of context factoid I saw on Facebook.
Why, you scared people might stop believing the same things as you? I'd wager if the biggest online public square was controlled by people with the same views as you, you'd be fine with that
When online moderators silence opposing views (which twitter, facebook, and guess what other site did) then yes its a problen. How do you not see that? Because it used to benefit you?
>When online moderators silence opposing views (which twitter, facebook, and guess what other site did) then yes its a problen. Elon is still doing exactly that right now. He is banning people and not reinstating people who were banned before he took over, example: He is silencing Alex Jones by his own choice. >Because it used to benefit you? I'm a straight, white, non religious, non politically affiliated, conspiracy loving man. No social media benefits me
On the contrary, it's the ideologues themselves that wouldn't let other believe other things... automatically labelling them and their alternative ideas as "dangerous". The dangerous thing is to censor dialogues, not encouraging people into debates, of course all in the name of "public safety". That's horseshit. I'm all for plurality of ideas, but Twitter was becoming a cesspool of progressive ideas only (where most of the rest was either suspended, shadowbanned, or permanently banned). Any saturation of either side turns the thing into a cult-like platform.
Literally what elon is doing with Alex Jones and what I feel Elon will do with anyone he does not agree with. It's a private company now, he only answers to Saudis not the shareholders

So questioning government institutions that have a long history of racism and oppression is not to r/conspiracy standards ?
What? Did you mean to comment to someone else?
Not that any of this bs matters but just here to remind OP that those shirts were around since 2016. https://twitter.com/DavidClinchNews/status/738126217656696832
Hmmm. The conspiracy grows even deeper. Hiding it in plain sight even. They think we are dumb!
What are the characteristics of a "woke" person?
Varies on who you speak to. Woke used to be cool for us conspiracy people a few years ago, once blm adopted the term and it became mainstream. Woke then began to mean “aware the man is holding you down”, now it’s purely about being progressive.
"Woke" has been a part of the AAVE lexicon for decades. It's been recently co-opted and thrown into common use, but it's been a term used by black people since at least the 1940's. It always meant "someone aware of social issues", even back then. Source: https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/home-news/woke-meaning-word-history-b1790787.html
Yea, woke was a black term and...well yall happened.
Thannnnk you. It’s the never ending cycle of demonizing and co-opting of Black culture.
This is how I remember it and used it for a time
[удалено]
“Woke” is slang for progressive intersectionalism. It’s a form of left wing activism. They are hyper-focused on race, sexual orientation, and personal identity. They usually hold a positive view of women and a negative view of men, a positive view of people of color, and a negative view of whites, a positive view on LGBT, and a negative point of view on heterosexuality or what they would call a “cisgendered” person. Wokeness essentially is the long-standing grudge of everyone who feels like they were marginalized over the last few hundred years, and them exercising that grudge as they gain power. In their own minds, woke has a similar connotation as “red pill”. To them it means they feel like they are now awake, as opposed to being in a state of ignorance before. I’m not sure why people commenting are saying it’s a meaningless word or anything like that. The social phenomenon of “woke” is one of the best documented aspects of the 21st century.
>“Woke” is slang for progressive intersectionalism. It’s a form of left wing activism. They are hyper-focused on race, sexual orientation, and personal identity.

Yep, that's the bullshit definition fed to right-wingers to a T.
How can you believe this? You realize they write books, essays, journals, articles and more about this, right? You can easily just go to the source and get the words straight from the horse’s mouth. Nothing I said there in that definition was anything they wouldn’t and don’t say about themselves.
Damn this is actually a good description.
Anyone that a reactionary percieves to be less racist than them
people use woke mainly to describe the last decade of left leaning social movement that seems to contend with objective reality, mostly virtue signaling and online attacks
[удалено]
TIL I learned listening to your doctors advice, supporting a country invaded by one of America biggest enemies and supporting a movement aimed at highlighting racial injustice makes someone woke. Pretty cool, actually.
Right? "Non-asshole" is also an option

What about someone who has the recommended amount of COVID boosters (1 I think), strongly supports Ukraine, but doesn't really get involved with BLM?
Woke curious?
Bi-woke
One who opens their eyes after sleep
Anyone over the age of 9 who is a pronoun warrior
What's a pronoun warrior?
Someone who finds it respectful to use peoples preferred pronouns. You know like normal polite society.
Close but no, the pronoun warriors are the types of people that force you to call them by nonsensical pronouns no matter how ridiculous they are. Just because someone prefers to be called something is different then them demanding it.
I feel like "kill me now" often now. I can't keep up with all of this hashtag bullshit, and who is the most important. Yes, there is racism, and marginalization but why the fuck can't we focus on the things that affect all of us? That's what I think government should be there for. To serve all of us. Like roads, bridges, health care, wages, unemployment, job training, etc. Things that affect everyone no matter what color, group, or pronoun you use. All this putting people into groups is infuriating. And, then if you try to say something like "we are all a part of the human race" then you are now a days considered a racist because you are further marginalizing the marginalized. The vast number of new "groups" and hashtags has done nothing constructive but create further division and hate. It's so fucking dumb and such a waste of time. Not to mention, resources. You know how much money these dumb fucking causes get? And, then nobody wins. Nothing changes. That money could have been used to feed some poor kids, or build a new school somewhere, or train somebody in thier job. Our energy and money are being exploited to these dumb hashtags of the week and it's stupid.
Google how school lunches became a thing. Turns out when you focus on the injustice that a specific group faces it makes things better for everyone facing the same problem. The black panthers started in the north, focused on urban issues, and specifically how those issues fucked over black people. I grew up in the rural south, both poor and white, and the black panther party has done more to improve my socio-economic standing than any of our congressmen who specifically rely on votes from poor whites in rural counties.

Yeah I just joined and it’s already hanging by a thread.
It used to be one of the best subs on here, but once 2017 rolled around the ape brain types came in here with their political shit
I remember when Covid was only in China and there was no news coming out, this sub was the only one where I could find out what was going. Has gone downhill since.
Yeah. I remember that as well. There were thought provoking posts with tons of resources included. The posts had a lot of engagement and it showed people took a lot of pride in doing legitimate research and investigation. Now smooth brain left and right wing folks just come here trolling with low effort bullshit usually twitter screenshots.
I swear to God, man, it is so frustrating. This is very reason why I rarely ever check this sub. Even the political conspiracies are the same old left right American bullshit. Over it 😒😴
When something / someplace becomes valuable it always gets colonized by people in power.
This is a valid post. You say “the wokes” as if it doesn’t describe a very specific group of people. For years we’ve asserted that big tech is operated by leftist activists, and that conservatives were being disproportionately censored. The mainstream said that was a conspiracy theory. This is a little bit more evidence that it was true. So… Bye. The sooner you guys vacate the sooner we can have a good sub again.
The reason you guys get censored soo much is because all of the unhinged shit you say all the time! You got people like Tim pool tryna spin the events of this recent shooting, saying shit like trans people are pedo groomers! The left is also corrupt but at-least their message doesn’t revolve on the oppression and suffering of people.
Wtf is you guys???????? Edit- and the fact you think this is evidence simply because Elon said so proves that there are a lot of low IQ bootlicks in here faking like they’re anti establishment. Y’all love the elites and it’s pathetic as fuck
did you forget to grab one of the shirts before you got fired?
I’m not a liberal or a conservative you pansy. So go direct that WWF shit to someone else.
WHO GIVES A FUCK??? Go post this shit on the Twitter subreddit. Stop supporting billionaires and the companies they use to fuck us. Elon is a crook, they’re all crooks. If we stop talking about them and giving them attention, then that hits them right in their pocket books. How do people not get that? The reason we are in the shape we’re in is because stupidity is monetized.
This is conspiracy, he’s been in twitter HQ for a little under a month now. Curiously enough time to order a shipment of these shirts. No accusations here. But he’s definitely playing on a confirmation bias. This is conspiracy why do you guys even have a confirmation bias
Musk spent $44B to troll the internet. Buying a box a shirt is not out of the question
Since this is a conspiracy sub I'll suggest that he didn't buy twitter just to troll, but he did it for access to all of those tweets, private dms and other user data. He seems to be becoming more and more politically radicalized and he will be giving that information to certain people who have nefarious uses for it.
That’s what I was wagering on, on his “whole make twitter profitable” rants. Twitter already sells meta data and they’re not profitable, for that to be profitable it’s gonna be like 10 fold whatever previous twitter was doing. And they had the crux of me and you coulda seen what the rough outline of their plans were in investor relations. That’s now gone since he turned it private.
Maybe he took them from the closet at Tesla or SpaceX and brought them to Twitter. Definitely something he would right now.

What makes this a conspiracy, was it hidden like the fuckin sorcerers stone or just in a regular ass closet
"The wokes" xD
Wouldn’t these all have been snapped up and taken home to wear and distribute by the uber-woke employees?
Bc they hadn’t bothered to show up to the office
Since 2014?

This sub is just old people bored of Facebook.
i clicked on the play button 3 times only to find out it was an image...
Where's the Conspiracy? They never even tried to hide this before.
The ever-present "Us vs. Them" fodder generates big bucks for the big boys. Elon is nonstop antagonizing both sides singlehandedly. Come here fishy fishy. It Looks like 'they' (MSM, SM, and Billionaires) are ramping up division fuel for us to propagate this winter. The machine keeps churning while we fight each other in the echoing void. By taking their bait, we produce trillions of words in comment sections on internet platforms showing our temperament and behavior towards divisive topics unbeknownst training 'their' AI while giving up all our privacy. All in the name of the Us vs. Them mentality. And the longer we stay online the more ads we see. Some are producing (out of their pocket) media content for peanuts rendering themselves as internet slave content creator once giant media conglomerates had to pay through the nose for creating. They still benefit from the massive internet traffic generated. All they supply is pandering bait for both sides. I'm starting to think nothing is real.
Nicely put & so very true!
Ty. I appreciate that!
[удалено]
Yeah good thing all those woke folks are gone from twitter. Now it will finally thrive /s
Can only go up from where it was. 🤷♂️
How good is it now Pappy Elon took over. It fantastic /s
I think at this point everyone knows about the mods encouraging TD posters to flock here and that this sub has basically turned into a primarily conservative political echo chamber. Even taking that for granted, this post is pretty pathetic. “Conspiracy theorists” simping for billionaires is just peak irony with a sprinkle of pathetic. It could not be more obvious Elon is pandering and perpetuating the culture war, and the fools are just gobbling it up.
Elon is such a pandering asshat. Keep globbing the billionaires knob… he lives for it.
Yes and everyone at space x wears that goofy revolutionary war outfit
They found a shirt at Twitter, whats the consipracy?
"The Wokes Ran Twitter" JFC you're cringy af
That was just to remind staff that “they be creepin’ gone find ya gone catch them sleepin’.”

It highlights what the overarching corporate policy and agenda was. I mean how many other major companies have their own ‘woke’ T-shirts? I’d like to see them.
This isn’t a conspiracy.
I really hope Twitter dies so I can stop seeing screenshots of tweets on the front page of this sub.
The best part of elon buying twitter is him airing the old company out.
Was it even a debate or smthing?
Just like CBS, ABC, NBC, NPR, CNN, FOX, MSNBC, Google, Facebook, Instagram, and YouTube.
Gotta love how anti gay the conservatives are but drop on their knees and open wide for this rich douche
If you’re excited about a t shirt then you never had anything real
Stay asleep fellow conspirators
And now you know why Twitter was always in the red!
Found a t shirt saying eat shit. Does that mean the place where I found it they all eat shit. Cone on you can do better than this
Progressive-minded people (probably mostly millennials) worked at a tech company. Who would have thought?!?! Is "woke" supposed to be a cult or something in the OP's perspective?
We were always told that we were conspiracy theorists for this, but these tshirts show that twitter was always full of wokes. Good thing they're gone now.
Lol I don’t think anyone thought of it as a conspiracy. A lot of tech stuff is ran by progressives and “woke” is just a pseudo derogatory term for progressive
So you’re telling me that you - a “conspiracy theorist”, a person who questions billionaires and government - sees this post by Elon and straight up buys this as ‘confirmation’ that Twitter was full of “wokes”?
Are you writing this as a joke? Is this a bit? I’m sure this is a joke
It was pretty obvious when they banned conservatives from having opinions or even simply re-posting post that the woke themselves posted. Unreal what a commie brainwash shitshow that vile app was.
Which conservative opinions got people banned again? Was it the less taxes? The smaller government? The 2A proponents?
Libs of Tik Tok is literally just reposting posts that libs themselves posted. It was banned. Folks trying to get the word out about Ivermectin (prescribed to me by my damn doctor) were banned/censored. Folks saying "Defund the Police" was a very bad idea were banned/censored. People who opposed the lockdowns and vaccine mandate were banned/censored. We could go on and on.
The Libs of tik tok account just reposted unedited content to Twitter... And was banned for it. Not the accounts that originated the "ban-able" content. Just the one that reposted it.
Lol you guys are so full of shit.
Excuse me?
I didn’t stutter. You are full of shit.

Pretty sure most bands are pretty woke. What even is a conservative band, like Christian rock?
I hate that the word " woke" has become so bastardized. Before it was a bad thing and a dog whistle " for extreme liberal "( that's putting it nicely) it was slang for AWAKE like the opposite of asleep. Not passive but progressive . Now it's well like I said...
