Sweet Baby Inc doesn’t even remotely do what many think it does, but on the modern internet, that doesn’t matter

      No they don’t, silly goose. You’re only listening to con artists who tell you that: which they do because you’re easy to fleece for cash if you’re angry and afraid. Woke is about becoming aware of inequality and how privileged white people are in western society. It isn’t about hatred or tearing anybody down (except maybe the rich). It’s about building up those whom society has kept at a disadvantage.

      But you’ve been told that equality is a zero sum game, and that any rights someone else gains come from rights they’ve taken from you. But it isn’t like that at all.

      Stop listening to people who tell you to fear. It isn’t courage. If someone calls you an asshole, maybe consider the possibility that you’re being one?

      Modern woke trends spread hatred against caucasian hetero people. Especially named company.

      Do you have any examples of them spreading hatred against caucasian hetero people?

      Did you know it’s possible to acknowledge social inequality and historical (as well as current) racism and use that knowledge to produce positive results for everyone?

      Did you know it’s possible to build policies that are mutually beneficial to both straight white male people and those who are not straight, white or male?

        No no, you can’t give someone a bigger piece of pie unless it comes from my piece of the pie! /s
