I find it funny how conservatives will say how they aren’t woke but won’t dare say the n word.

I love that woke = people I don’t like or that dont wanna deal with my bullshit. Some premadonna snowflake energy. Like an abusive relationship, “No one is as funny as me, why won’t you like my shitty humor? It’s gotta be you. You’ll never find someone who is as great as me”

TIL not saying the n word is a progressive value

It’s at least the same concept. Words can hurt. Don’t use them to hurt people. Why do they seem to get that with the n-word but not other slurs or demeaning language? Do they actually understand that with the n-word, or are they just copying what everyone else does without actually thinking about why?

I think for the hateful/misinformed people, they get that you can’t help being black, but they might think it’s your fault for being LGBT. I think they also assume that if they’re not putting those people down, they’re saying that approve of that identity, lifestyle, or culture.
But I think it’s also fair to point out that most anti-woke people don’t use slurs at all.

Yes, because 60 years ago they’d say it. Now they are woke.
