> Woke is what they used to call PC. Simple terminology for the terminally simple.

> Woke is weaponized PC. PC was always treated as just something of an annoyance. Those stupid snowflake liberals who can’t take a joke are ruining anything fun.
> 
> Woke is a threat to everything you know, forcibly changing the sex of your kids, and making being white or Christian illegal.

Did y’all see [this thread](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/if-you-whine-about-political-correctness-youre-a-bigot/725671) I posted nine years ago? Here are the title and my OP there:

> **If you whine about political correctness, you’r a bigot**
> 
> Seriously. Maybe I’ve just missed it, but I don’t think so. Every freaking time I hear someone bitching about “political correctness” it’s to make a bigoted comment or to bitch about the person they’re accusing of being “PC” or “Liberal” is being “too soft” on someone the accuser hates–and that hatred based usually on prejudice.
> 
> So, let me lay it out for you bigoted jackasses:
> 
> Treating Blacks just like you treat Whites isn’t PC: it’s the right thing to do.  
> Treating Muslims like you treat any other people isn’t PC: it’s the right thing to do.  
> Treating immigrants like you treat any other people is’t PC: it’s the right thing to do.  
> Treating all people like people isn’t PC: it’s the right thing to do.
> 
> So, if you’re ready to whine more–in real life or on a message board–about someone being PC, shut the fuck up! More likely than not, you’ve already shown yourself to be a jackass; no need to add more proof.
