How far are these woke states going to slip away? Is there a limit to their madness? These people have proven that the Earth is indeed flat and that if you get too close to the edge, you WILL fall off. They're just fine with forcing women to accept men as their cellmates. Transgenders have more rights than women do. Why should women be forced to be jailed with men? What happened to women's rights?
What do New Yorkers think about this?
If being “woke” means supporting equality, science and democracy,
Howard Stern is happy to be branded as such.
“I hear that a lot that I’m not good anymore because I’m ‘woke,’” Stern
said on his SiriusXM radio show on Monday.
“I kind of take that as a compliment, that I’m woke,” he continued. “I’ll tell you how I feel about it. To me the opposite of woke, is being asleep. And if woke means I can’t get behind Trump, which is what I think it means, or that I support people who want to be transgender, or I’m for the vaccine ― dude, call me woke as you fucking want.”
Stern celebrated COVID-19 vaccines, telling listeners he recently
got the new booster shot, and mocked
Donald Trump’s lie that the 2020 election was stolen.
“I am woke, motherfucker, and I love it,” he said. “I want to be awake. I want to read legitimate news sources. Here’s how woke I am: I believe the election was not rigged.”
Merriam-Webster
defines “woke” as being “aware of and actively attentive to important societal facts and issues (especially issues of racial and social justice).”
The term has been
hijacked in recent years by conservatives, who use it liberally and at times nonsensically as a culture war catchall to criticize progressive values and
just about anything else they don’t like.
