And black women used a white woman to enrich themselves also. Fair trade-off if that is the case.

It's true. All of it.

I have it on good authority she has also enjoyed a penis on occasion in her life. She reeks of cis-privilege.

“ Blaming the problems of people or institutions on racism, sexism, ect.”

Ok. I can respect your definition of Woke, but I’d like to share with you that it is not the definition people of color has for it when used. Somehow the word or phrase got twisted and is now used as the definition you shared. I’m just trying to understand that when a race uses a word for the purpose of awareness, uplifting, and accountability others choose to spin it for another agenda. This puzzles me. Again, the definition you use, albeit yours, is not the real meaning of the word. Please stop using it out of context. Your definition is describing something else.

People who want a definition of “woke” are woke. People who have eyes and ears and have watched society devolve to men competing in womens sports don’t have to ask for a definition of “woke”

If the supposed to be "woke" people quit calling things like math racist you may have an argument but the Transportation Secretary who certainly considers himself woke called tunnels racist a few days ago so maybe it's the woke that need to make the adjustment not myself.

I'm sorry, but your argument does not make since. It does not matter who says it and how it's said. What matters is the context in which it's said.

Watching the news and political figures weaponize the word does not make it any more than what its true intent is/was.

Let's not get upset when a race uses a term for a good purpose. Again, somehow "Woke" got twisted into something evil. Is that b/c people of color are the primary use of it and therefore it seems frightening thus others must then demonize it? Why is that? Sincere question???

Why is it an issue for people of color to be aware of inequalities that surround them and work hard to bring injustice to light? Should they simply just allow such things to occur unspoken?

Is it really an issue to have a state of enlightenment. To be self-aware; intentional with actions and choices?

Why is this true definition of "Woke" so misused by others attempting to associate it with all things ugly?

I was under the impression that we were going to have a serious conversation. I see that I was mistaken. Your response lacks validity and as such I've decided not to accept your explanation.
