A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Posts must be original/unique
- Be good to others - no bigotry - including racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, or xenophobia
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

I just gave you the definition of woke from the American politician who is the most "anti-woke". How in the world can you interpret that definition as meaning it's racist to treat all races equally?
I didn't say it based on the definition you posted; but bassd on my countless encounters with “woke” people.
So you're making your own definition of woke and you don't like the definition you've settled on. Got it.
Feel free to take the definition I've give you and use it to educate others.
Whatever definition you use doesn't change what actual "woke” people think.
Maybe. But it does change what YOU know to be the definition. Makes it easier to separate the people from the word.
