it's okay to not like something for being too on the nose on its messages/gaslighting/virtue signaling

The proper response to someone who uses "woke" as an insult is to stop talking to them and never talk to them again in the future.

nobody decent uses "woke" as a pejorative. they may not be complete pieces of trash, but they're definitely not okay in the head.

a lot of these people also don't understand how freedom of speech works either. it just sucks for those who have to see them during holidays.

Ask them what woke means and laugh as they struggle to describe it.

No they don't. They'll use the word without seeing the actual gameplay/show/movie.

I dunno, that's what people tell me so anecdotal evidence and all that. I know it's a near meaningless buzzword but when people use a word there is an intended meaning, what would you guess that intended meaning to be if not "preachy about ideas i disagree with"?

Its weird this is a controversial take now when like 90% of this board felt this opinion back in like 2015, and to a much more abrasive degree.

I'd say they mean "having ideas I disagree with." Those ideas being having minority and/or female representation that doesn't follow some arbitrary rules.

It being "preachy" or not is irrelevant to them. We see it on here ever day.

I dont see how anyone intelligent would struggle with this. It ultimately means pandering trying to incorporate progressive messages but in a way that feels insincere, devoid of true understanding of the subject (AKA ignorant), or so on-the-nose that its insulting.
