I want to take back ‘Retard’. Because I want it to apply to things that are infuriatingly stupid, instead of it being used as a derogatory term towards special needs people.

    Woke has basically always meant what it means today. It’s just gotten worse and worse of a catch all term when people like desantis use it as a generic enemy without even having a definition for it.

      Woke has previously meant “aware of social injustices” now the chuds use it as “anything they don’t like and is vaguely progressive or representative of anyone not cis, het, white, or a dude”
