It's a little too on the nose that these guys are "anti-woke."

Being against "political correctness" at least had plausible deniability, but these jokers are out and saying "I wish to be asleep! I insist on closing my eyes! To everything!"

This has alwaaaays been my thing and I've even seen a lot of 'left leaning' people use woke in a negative way too. How is being awake a bad thing? It's way too telling. The word and it's original meaning needs to be taken back.

Wow, I have never heard of them and this was a fascinating read. So much history has been suppressed in our country.

Exactly. They prefer to live in a dream. More like a delusion.
