    The fact that somehow Big Bird and friends were a threat of any sort to society should tell you what kind of asshole they chose to be. Social media platforms like twatter and meta justify in their minds their assholery. Sesame Street didn’t stand a chance against the onslaught of digital dipshit soapboxes.

    it was always “woke”

    it should be woke

    woke is a GOOD thing, and anyone who says otherwise is a sack of shit and should be ashamed

    sincerely,
    woke AF woke person who is woke

        Not used widely enough with that intent yet, though.

        It might even end up being in the dictionary as “Something that you don’t like”, instead :P

        Happier times, when it was just the past tense for “wake”.

      In England, before ‘woke’ and ‘snowflake’ was a saying, people used to say ‘it’s PC gone mad’.

      Sincerely, someone whose PC went mad.

      Exactly. Like, what are TV suppose to teach? Don’t fraternise with black people? Men should always be dominant over women? Empathy is bad? Christianity is the one and only true religion and Muslims should be deported?

      People who say that woke is always bad are wrong. People who say that woke is always great are wrong. The concept is being used for cynically manipulating people to be at each others’ throats all the time because that’s how fucked up shit companies make amazing amounts of money these days apparently.

      Dunno how lemmy plays into all this, probably by cargo culting what those shit companies were doing.

        LOL bro-- you’re in the wrong fucking place here

        woke is ALWAYS great. the opposite of woke is ALWAYS bad.

        i don’t know what your maga motivation is, but it’s weak.

    By the way back then you didn’t have influencers and youtubers telling you what to think, and there were no 6 hours video assay telling you how bad the lastest disney movie (because no other animated movie is worth discussing) is. Honestly back then we either turned on the tv or pop in some vhs or later on dvd and be happy about it. I know it’s wild to think but we didn’t have internt with us all time.
