so your complaint is that they are not consistent or not speaking out enought?With leftists it seems that it should be on a selected basis though.
There was some just cause for women to come forth, but it got out of control as most ideologies do.
False accusations were made and the victim/victimhood narrative took over.
Men, especially white men, are walking on eggshells in the private workplace and many
good warriors are leaving the military as the US Military has taken on the WOKE ideology.
So women, blacks, LBGTQ are whiners with no real cause to be offended, are really not victims nor oppressed?to me, a woke is someone who whines and moans about having to do something that he/she doesn't want to conform to and also tries to find things to feel offended about because it's like street cred to them to be a victim who is oppressed.
Jesus came to call sinners to repentance to escape the coming wrath of God. Which wrath was holy, just and good...That is the question few people care to discuss.
Have you ever read Miss Manners? She writes about courtesy, kindness, dignity and respect for all people.
Gentle reader, I believe "woke" is also about treating each person, no matter who they are with courtesy, kindness, dignity and respect.
That would be my definition. "Woke" to the awareness of how I influence how other people feel.
Basically Emotional Intelligence.
Probably ought to be its own thread, Your definition of "woke" or "Wokeness".
That sounds toward the extreme.It seems more a lie of imaginary compassion that has no tolerance for any disagreement.
Examples, to me, are if a person says “all lives matter” then the sign adherents will get mad and accuse such sentiment as “hate.” Or if science is to some people that humans are male or female ( what was once “common sense”) is probably “hate.” Or the Christian definition of love ( 1 John 4:8,1 Corinthians 13:1-13) cannot be in agreement with “love is love”. The sign says, “no human is illegal” does that mean there are no laws to be obeyed in society ( in contradiction to Romans 13:1-7)? etc.
Yes, but how is that germane to the OP?Jesus came to call sinners to repentance to escape the coming wrath of God. Which wrath was holy, just and good...
What do you mean by "woke"? How do you define it?He was not woke....
"Woke is a political slang adjective derived from African-American Vernacular English (AAVE) originally meaning alertness to racial prejudice and discrimination. Beginning in the 2010s, it came to encompass a broader awareness of social inequalities such as racial injustice, sexism, and denial of LGBT rights."That sin is ok.......
You know Harvey Weinstein's case in NY was thrown out?"Some just cause" for guys like Harvey Weinstein but you don't think others?
You think women in the military who have come forward with complaints of rape and sexual assault have gone too far?
Broader awareness, to accept sinful behavior in Christ. No Jesus was not woke, he called to repentance, as God's wrath was coming, which was a just and right wrath in his eyes."Woke is a political slang adjective derived from African-American Vernacular English (AAVE) originally meaning alertness to racial prejudice and discrimination. Beginning in the 2010s, it came to encompass a broader awareness of social inequalities such as racial injustice, sexism, and denial of LGBT rights."
