What about this part? You know good and god damned well that the people that don’t join these groups are viewed negatively by management when promotions come around if the person works for a corporation.

Here we go again. This is another symptom of state republicans being absolutely worthless and doing nothing to combat this. What could be done?
Easy. A state could enact a non-discrimination law that bans quotas, "diversity programs", or any employment decisions which take race or sex into account. This would immediately stop all woke programs. Then, in the event a plaintiff is successful, that plaintiff would be entitled to treble damages.
The law could even include examples of discrimination, for example, promoting a member of one race when a member of another race had objectively superior qualifications.
Yet, from what I have seen, Florida is the only state that has tried to do something about this. These other state GOPs have done absolutely nothing. Why is this?

I irony of your post, considering you are the exact type of person that gets offended if you are addressed by the "wrong pronoun".

Nah
I learn about all the “woke” stuff from this website. Never encountered it in real life.

Something something character not color, something.

We left a church because of wokeness (well, because the influence was causing the church to stray). It wasn't anything overtly trans/CRT, but it was beginning to interfere with the church's ability to boldly tell the truth, and that was a problem.

I 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. Casual conversation over dinner and drinks situation that’s going well until she decides out of the blue to bring up politics. She asks me who I’m voting for to which I might as well have replied, “no thanks I don’t want any pussy tonight.” After I said Trump, she just sat there puzzled asking herself why she had to ask. Then she starts questioning why I would vote for him, even though we both already know this charade is over. A few awkward moments go by as I sip on my drink, she gulps hers down, then she stands up and walks out of the restaurant. My dick still hasn’t forgiven me.

Similar story happened to me in summer 2016. I had just moved to Baton Rouge after being discharged from the Army and was on the hunt using Tinder. Come across this girl: Teach for America alum, LSU Operations Director for one of their academic programs. Pretty blue eyes, fair skin. My type.
Anyway, we're at The Bulldog having a good time. She brings up politics and I flat out say I'm a Trump guy. She starts arguing with me and I tell her I'm not here for this shite. I pay for MY drinks and roll the frick out.
Never let a liberal bitch beat you to the punch.

Most woke people generally think they are in the middle of the spectrum and can't recognize their own insanity.

"Act professionally"? The trouble is the woke community keeps re-drawing the lines that defines professionalism. Just a quick look at the pronouns issue: N.Y. State recently put out a list of 73 different pronouns that should be used in State business. Another issue is that the now way too prevalent answer to the question "what is the big deal" ( or paraphrase how you wish ) is "it makes me uncomfortable". Or, even this: "it hurts my feelings". Let's wrap a bubble around every body to ensure their precious feelings aren't hurt.
