    There is almost no sentence that features the word “woke”, or any of its variants in it, that is not propaganda. It’s an inherently propagandistic term. The people that originally used it in a stay-woke way knew this, and were doing that on purpose, as a literal slogan amongst themselves. Anti-woke is just propaganda in the other direction.

    Neither is something “real”, both are just someone trying to manipulate attitudes and control other people in a certain way. Just like SJW, anti-SJW etc. It’s all political propaganda, meant to manipulate.

    If you think or talk in those terms, you’re being political.

    If you want “real” or “normal”, just try to be an okay person and remember people can have their own ideas, and that’s fine, and you don’t need to change them. They’re not going out and hurting you or something, even if they make bad movies or whatever.

    Or if you use them, just be conscious about it and realize you’re dealing in propaganda. You’re a political person. That’s fine too. Unless you’re in Russia or something, then it might get you thrown out a window. Otherwise usually fine though, you’re just exercising your civic rights.

    Really hilarious to me someone could not realize wanting to be “un-woke” is totally propagandized though. Using any of these sorts of terms means you’ve fallen down the propaganda rabbit hole. At least be aware of it.
