In England, before 'woke' and 'snowflake' was a saying, people used to say 'it's PC gone mad'.
Sincerely, someone whose PC went mad.
Have you tried fixing your PC by installing Linux?
Conservatives essentially believe that liberals are all the PC Principal from South Park.
Honestly even the over-the-top caricature that he is is still well-meaning and mostly decent, just zealous. Like literally even their worst case boogyman version is... Mostly fine?
And cannot tell the difference between a peak neoliberal shitlib, an anarchist, or a stalinist
Nope. All are "the radical left" to them, because improving someone else's life a lot at the cost of a minor inconvenience to yourself is an unhinged, radical idea to them.
Woke is literally just the opposite of ignorant
Not used widely enough with that intent yet, though.
It might even end up being in the dictionary as "Something that you don't like", instead :P
Happier times, when it was just the past tense for "wake".

I never got how it was 'bad' to be woke but at the same time we should 'wake up sheeple'.
Right wing ideals have never been consistent. It's all bluster to push an immediate narrative with no regard to how contradictive it is to their other ideals
Well, sheeple are the ancient eneny, so you must wake them from the dream that is the world without waking yourself or those you love.
I dont get how you dont understand this.
Exactly. Like, what are TV suppose to teach? Don't fraternise with black people? Men should always be dominant over women? Empathy is bad? Christianity is the one and only true religion and Muslims should be deported?

By the way back then you didn't have influencers and youtubers telling you what to think, and there were no 6 hours video assay telling you how bad the lastest disney movie (because no other animated movie is worth discussing) is. Honestly back then we either turned on the tv or pop in some vhs or later on dvd and be happy about it. I know it's wild to think but we didn't have internt with us all time.
We didn't have the youtubers or Instagram thots; but we sure had influencers in the form of "talking heads" on television and radio.
See: Rush Limbaugh (the Alex Jones of my youth)
Even before that there was Walter Cronkite, then Peter Jennings.
That was back in an era where everyone watched the same "influencers". The good part of that was that for the most part, these influencers were rigorously fact checked so the people who watched them agreed on the same set of facts, and those facts were more or less true.
On the other hand, there were times when these "influencers" were biased or even hid the truth. The bias was often something they even had trouble noticing. Like, they all believed communism was a big threat, or that police were trustworthy. As for hiding the truth, sometimes when a politician got in trouble the news would drop the story because of their deference to power. They'd also sometimes try to repeat whatever the government said as truth without checking it, or not investigate bad things the government was doing overseas because they saw that as being patriotic.
Overall, I think it was better when everybody agreed on most things, even if sometimes the news / "influencers" were biased. At least it meant that the government was more or less functional. At least it meant that people were relatively civil with each-other.
There's something more insidious about these new talking heads tho.
