Just read on Facebook:

Turns out "Woke" kept
planes in the sky,
judges from being arrested,
hairdressers out of the gulags,
students in colleges,
and young children with cancer
from being deported.

Humans are more & more enlighted every day.
MAGA anti-woke means they want to stop enlightenment, which is against our natural instincts.

Enlightenment is the understandings and wisdom that comes from being "woke". Once you can see and hear, you can understand, and draw your own conclusions. We're both correct.

And we know that Republican voters are the most unenlightened folks out there. To be anti-woke is to be a brain dead zombie, who lets other people tell them what to think, what to say, what to do, how to act, how to feel, and, ultimately, who to hate.
And 10's of millions of Americans are most definitely in the anti-woke column.

... an awaking in upcoming elections. Time for everyone to Woke up. I will look for this meme... I think about the gay hairdresser and the child with cancer. What is happening to them? How is a gay hairdresser treated in a prison known as the most horrific? What kind of treatment will the child with cancer receive? The cruelty is incredible... the Trumpsters have to be sadistic.
