Woke

Swaye

It feels like we are in some kind of race to see who can be the wokest. And yet nobody gives two shits about any of this where I live. Sort of like Covid. This is another manufactured hysteria being driven by 15% of the population and their overlords in the media.

Do we have issues with race in America? You bet. Will all of them be solved by firing a bunch of people for tweets that are borderline racist at all from 10 years ago? Nope.

We've lost the script completely. And I have never in America seen a more one way conversation. You can't even question the motives of BLM without fear of personal reprisal. Asking if the groups motives and intent are based on some achievable goal to help the black community is a fair and non-racist question. Not anymore. Ask it and you are cancelled. This isn't America anymore. This is Nazi Germany. Any dissenting opinion, that isn't hyper far left, will be crushed.

right now it is a competition between the cities.

Minneapolis should have a big lead with two blacks killed by police and the white gal killed by a black cop - but Seattle seeing it needed to make a serious change to take over first place made a massive move by letting the rioters take over 12 blocks of Capital Hill.

Portland adds 40 paid hours off for I can't figure out what to all employees to counter Seattle's ceding of property.
New York City's nickname is being changed from the 'Big Apple' to the 'Big Flush

This shit is changing rapidly and I can't keep track of the rankings.

Let Minneapolis be the test case for governed by the 100% fully woke. Let’s see what happens, just don’t bail them out when their earning tax base jumps ship to suburbs or out of state. Let’s see if the systemic racism magically dries up.

To be fair, Minneapolis is full Somalis. Maybe they are more comfortable with a Mogadishu type city. A few war lords running the show.

Everyone thought I was crazy for asking if Seattle would become the Left coast Detroit. #Freecapitolhill
