        Let’s use the definition DeSantis used during a court hearing.

        the belief there are systemic injustices in American society and the need to address them.

        The injustice here being that the Israeli government thinks one Israeli life is worth 40 Palestinians and growing. That they are allowed to punish an entire country for the actions of the few. Using internationally banned tactics and lies. And committing genocide by starvation by blocking the import of food, water and medicine, and bombing all the buildings.

        Know the funny thing? You calling things woke means you believe there are systemic injustices in society and try to address them by calling them out.

          woke is a term used by the black people to actually mean be aware of racial prejudices and discrimination.

          it has now been perverted and hijacked by a group of people to include anything under the sun that offends them,a label they are proud to use. any one who holds contrary views would immediately be vilified as a nazi,boomer,snowflake or any other derogatory labels.

          we all know any aid given to gaza people will be stolen, misappropriated by hamas. funds, building materials from UN were used to spread hate and build tunnels for hamas to carry out their terror attacks on innocent.

          hamas gave israel a reason to go crazy on a silver platter on 7th Oct. you want to hold someone accountable,hold hamas. As for Netenyahu,he will be prosecuted once enough evidence has shown he is guilty.

            You are correct

            Woke has been perverted and hijacked by the anti-woke group to include anything under the sun that offends them.

            Gay person on tv? woke

            Black person cast in a show? woke

            Footballer kneeling during the anthem? woke

            Statistics that say we eat too much meat? woke

            Pollution reduction? woke

            Green energy? woke

            Covid prevention measurements? woke

            Social aid? woke

            Pregnancy prevention? woke

            Equal rights for women? woke

            A woman on the board of directors? woke

            Starbucks only doing a red cup instead of also adding a religion specific quote on it? you guessed it, woke

            The aid to Gaza is indeed stolen, but by the Israeli police, not Hamas. They are literally on the border burning all the resources that were send to Gaza. We have documented videos about it.

            What is your source?

            How many Palestinian lives do you think one Israeli life is worth?

              incorrect.

              equal rights, representation and treatment for lgbt,women and other marginalized groups isn’t woke,its called progression of civil society.

              woke is when you demand confirmity to your views and differing veiws or opinions are not accepted,even though the differing party agrees to 80% of the subject in question.

              israel do not need to burn or steal aid,they can outright prohibit entry of aid to gaza. since hamas and their supporters are starving,they have more incentive to steal and deny aid to gaza people.

              trading hamas for food should have been the sane thing to do.

            Why do you keep dodging the simple request of defining it and why it’s bad in this case?
