These fucking people. Woke just means anything that they don’t like. You could say “radical leftist” roads and it would have the same effect. Also, LOL at the idea of roads chanting “Black Lives Matter”. Let’s actually get on that so the Owen Shroyer’s, the Steve Bannon’s, the Jack Pasobeic’s can all gnash their teeth. Maybe they’ll take the DEI Communist train. At least the ads remind them of capitalism even if they have to sit across from a black guy.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

Also, LOL at the idea of roads chanting “Black Lives Matter”.
Well by that definition there is at least one actually woke road : https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_Lives_Matter_Plaza
Was. It was removed by Trump and Republicans. Are you shocked? I'm not shocked...
A typical welfare queen wants the money but won't do the work.
At times like this, it's fun to replace the word "woke" with "communist" and understand the late 1910s better. 100+ years and all their fear mongering did was change out words.
Is he trying to mimic the way Trump speaks?
Always has. Just watch his hands. It's all just a rip-off of the original.
Dude peaked in highschool
Peaked at conception
Yet more proof that the term "woke" means absolutely anything to these people.
Fellas, is having breathable air gay?
If another dude had sex and breathed in the air, you're breathing that dude's sex air.
Breathing is gay.
Jesus H. christ Republicans are just dumb and reactionary. I mean how stupid and cult-minded to associate emissions testing, that other Red as fuck states do, as woke.
When my app listed the top line of this post as "Ron DeSantis rips tailpipe" I imagined him inhaling from the end of a tailpipe like it was a bong. It's the closest I've come to a positive thought about Ron DeSantis in... well, ever.
Can the ocean level just rise already
Ron, you know there's reasons why you should be monitoring emissions...oh, right, you're the anti-science guy in a state that has long been affected by the very thing you don't want to talk about. Dumb ass.
The opposite of woke is still asleep, regardless of its use. Close your eyes, Ron. That'll help.
Ron needs to learn a new word
So he's saying he doesn't want to do his job? Sounds like a sackable offence to me.
So what he’s saying is that he wants to replace the tarmac roads with concrete? It’s certainly in character for him.
Why does this cunt not have aggressive metastatic cancer?
I haven't heard anything from that petite gasbag in a while.
He has no idea what a sad, tiny, angry clown he is.
Wait until he hears about the drinking age and interstate funding.
