Is Woke Dead

[DamoEI]

Before COVID, people were generally comfortable in their lives so they tolerated a lot of shit they shouldn't have cos they just wanted a quiet life. Then COVID came along and, all of a sudden, a quiet life became impossible. You had to do and say everything you were told to do and say, or your life would be turned upside-down. COVID shook a lot of people out of their apathy, the silent majority are starting to speak up now and "woke" is not (and never was) welcome.

Also doesn't help that inflation, energy costs, rents, grocery costs, are all spiraling out of control; people stop giving a toss about pronouns and cultural appropriation when they can barely afford to live.
