Of Course You Know What "Woke" Means
The title for this thread was stolen from the Freddie deBoer blog/article quoted and linked below. I couldn't come up wi
“Toxic femininity” π
Trolly has no need of mere womankind when he's on internet forums 18 hours a day for 14 years.
Toxic femininity doesn’t distinguish between the real and the counterfeit. If the counterfeit is more socially salient, then TF sides with the counterfeit and punishes those who side with the real.
Ah, good to have you around to remind us to focus on what's real. Speaking of which, how's your very real sky friend doing today? Chatted to him asking for guidance lately?
Toxic femininity is just bitchiness, right? Just like toxic masculinity could also be called being an *******.
I feel like you guys are throwing around terms you’re unable to accurately define…
I find the whole anti-abortion a child is not a choice arguments as woke moralizing. But since conservatives hold those positions it's not woke.

The Woke hold certain racial, sexual, and gender identities as sacred, but these identities are counterfeit forms of the sacred.
The child is actually sacred.
Where the Woke get in trouble is that they rightly have an intuition that we are searching for something sacred in the margins, but toxic femininity doesn’t venture beyond the boundaries of the social, so they project the sacred onto the socially marginalized.

It was bound to happen sooner or later. This election, in part, is a response to widespread wokeism.
Iβm sure thatβs partially true, but Iβm more just approaching it as a cultural critic of whatβs actually going on in the culture. People were acting like being woke is still the most powerful ideology there is, when in many ways itβs now the βanti-wokeβ aligned people that are becoming a hegemony.

I mostly agree. The anti-woke crowd can be just as bad as the woke. The problem is that neither of them are willing deviate from their original position. Wokeism is losing traction, but it's still powerful. Those people are loud. Either way, the blowback was inevitable.
