re: Have you personally dealt with the “wokeness”?

went on a date with this girl during the pandemic. I saw the signs she was a lefty but I was thinking with my dick.

Happened to me recently with a girl I had been seeing and already slept with. It was good too. We’re watching a game at the bar, and she said something egregious a black person did to a white person that was in the news, and I said something like “well that’s pretty racist of them”

She flipped the frick out and started going off about how black people can’t be racist, and she didn’t expect that from me, etc.

I believe it was at the mobile where employees were wearing name tags that said what their preferred pronouns were. Girl that waited on me just had regular pronouns, she, her, and something else regular

I would have turned around and walked out. Spending money at places that pull this is to support their decision. The phrase "go woke, go broke" exists because so many people are absolutely against it and wind up holding businesses accountable for giving into this reality-denying bullshite.

I had be a friend that was involved in a financial services RFP for a large hospital. The RFP asked a question about their diversity program. When in the interview their in house counsel (a white woman from Atlanta) looked across the table and said “you guys had a good answer about your diversity but all I see are a bunch of white men”

I told him they should’ve answered “we wanted to put together the best team for your account and race or gender wasn’t considered”

Had a cousin over with his at the time girlfriend (now married) who is a complete leftist loon. Conversation was going fine until it got political. She was adamant that we as white people should be doing everything we can to assist blacks in succeeding in life. Once my friend and I started bringing logic and statistics into the conversation she lost her shite. I told her this is why we cannot take people like you seriously because you ignore facts and think with your emotions over logic. She didn't speak from that point on and it was glorious.

I don’t know about ‘woke’ but this diversity crap is dumb. I’m at one of the big chemical plants on the river on turnaround.
I have been in Safety for 25 years or so. The job field is now full of people who are there for who they are , rather than what they know now. It’s looks like a United Nations meeting when we meet here. Black women, gay Latino guy, Asian . No trannys yet, but I’m sure it’s coming.

I can work with anyone who is qualified to do the job. However , I refuse to accept stupidity because of skin color. This has led me to get in trouble quite often these days.

Every year I have to complete a course on "Racism" and "LGBTQ in the Workplace" as an HR requirement. It's annoying, but a minor inconvenience.

This type of attitude is clearly giving up/giving in. I have to do the same thing. It is a major inconvenience and complete bullshite. It is ruining America.

customer is probably late 20s. My installer was talking about how the military has gone woke

Your installer is a fricking idiot for discussing wokeness with a customer. Tell him to be a fricking professional next time and not discuss his personal beliefs.

When you’re complaining about wokeness you’re most likely talking politics, which is best to keep out of work talk

That’s why the farming ag industry is awesome.



Just a bunch of white baws
