With admittedly a little help from AI, I'll go with this:

"A heightened awareness of social and political issues, particularly those related to systemic injustice, inequality, and discrimination, often accompanied by advocacy for addressing these issues. While rooted in the pursuit of social justice and inclusion, the application of 'woke' principles can sometimes lead to ten ...[text shortened]... stions about balance and fairness in broader societal contexts."

That's as objective as I can be.
Funny how the ultrarightwingnuts turned that into a pejorative.

Please define your understanding of the word 'Woke' as if you were a dictionary.
Off subject but did you know Sprogladog is God Al Gorps spelled backwards?🙂

We get your thinking Not so sure about your requirement that we be ‘unified’. Is it possible to be unified and independent at the same time?. I prefer independence myself. I also think that Trump is at least working his ass off, better than Sleepy or a cackling C@mella being our guiding lights, or NO lights. At least Trump is a light, shines bright.
Man, you hav ...[text shortened]... ng we can do except lip service, how do we prepare? Uhh, maybe don’t put your solution in writing!!

No.

Raising up one group does not necessarily lower any others.

That they think it does is a testament to their motivations. But they've also been told they must fear the other.

No, I had said the majority of those who voted voted for Trump. My statement hardly includes the 200M that did not vote, you silly goose. Did you skew my comment?
You never actually said that.

You skewed your own comment.

Everyone is alert to, and concerned about social injustice and discrimination... everyone. There are no exceptions. People see and understand what these things are. How you react is what makes the difference. The reaction. The response.... now that is what makes the difference between the smart and foolish.
I cannot argue with this, except that those you label; 'smart' and 'foolish', are the wrong groups.
