What is a "Woke" Game

The whole crux of the issue is that you're trying to tie in "wokeness" with "being lectured".

There's no issue with talking about "this writing could be better, it feels overly like a lecture." As I've said, people on the left have these kinds of conversations all the time without being regarded as unsympathetic or racist or sexist or whatever. 

But when you have to make this a bigger issue and tie in groups that directly attack the other groups, or when you have to attack those groups yourself, that becomes problematic. 

"Jeremy might be a racist, but he was right that this black character was poorly written" => all around crappy comment.

"This black character was poorly written, they could have made different choices" => potentially a great comment.

Im trying to explain how some people may behave the way they do from past experiences, but all you guys see are hate. 

This goes both ways. 

I've repeatedly opened the door for better common ground, and for some reason you've never taken it. 

You keep insisting that you don't want to be lectured and don't want bad writing; and I'm just saying you can absolutely 100% complain about those things without making the issue about "wokeness". But for whatever reason you don't want to drop the "wokeness" part. 

I wont drop wokeness, no. I believe that is what is dividing people more than anything in todays society. I refuse to be lectured to by woke people that pretend to have peoples best interest in heart. They dont want equality, they want superiority. They pretend to care about minorities and the LGBT community, but as soon as anybody from any of those groups dont agree with them and their beliefs 100%, they are suddenly not so important anymore.   

I think this video (even though it is a comdey sketch) nails what many people now think about woke people:

Not anything I say will ever come close to this video, so I wont post here anymore. Not because of you, but I need to focus on my mental well being at this point. Runa said that I think you guys are snowflakes, but that is not true. If anything, Im the snowflake. I have a tendency to let my emotions take over when I become frustrated. You guys are as cold as ice. 

'Wokeness' has existed in some form or another for as long as there have been people. There have always been those in power who are comfortable in their power and those who don't have rights seeking those rights. 

It's how we get stuff like civil rights movements, women's rights, etc. IT's how we ended slavery; we had a war over that one. Every single progressive motion or positive change in this world has been driven by 'woke' ideology. The fact that you can't see that is not something I can teach. It's not something I can explain. If you still don't get it, then you're kind of a lost cause.
