Go on youtube and search about Disney’s latest failure Elemental and you get all these insane videos about “Woke Disney” made by people who talk exclusively about the “woke mob”.

Ever heard of Yellowflash, Clownfish TV, and those other reactionaries? I first heard about them during the Vic Mignogna drama. (whether those accusations are true or not is another discussion, but it made reactionaries insane).

    It’s a dogwhistle for everything that goes against the current status quo. Everything I don’t like is woke.

    My city (with a right wing gov) upgraded a normal car road into a bicycle road in which bicycles have priority. They can’t be overtaken by cars anymore, for example. People from the beginning started calling this leftist woke nonsense.

    Infrastructure is woke.

      Not even, woke is just anything a democrat (or an actual leftist, they don’t care the difference) likes, that a reactionary doesn’t like. That’s how a Disney movie can be woke, along with what you said.
