    The process is: left invents a word that actually means something. Conservatives turn it into swear word. Left forgets it means something and never use the word again

    Just for once I wish the left would stick to its convictions

      the left didn’t invent “woke”. Black people invented “woke”. It was meant to alert others to the idea that you are aware of racial injustice baked into our society.
