Do you just enjoy the feeling of constantly being made a fool? Is that why you think ‘woke’ is such an insult? Some kind of weird kink about being robbed and abused?
Well fuck me I fell for it. It’s real hard to tell these days when someone’s being facetious or not on the internet :(
People get used to assuming other people are dumber than them, especially online. So they see an obvious joke and instead if thinking “well obviously they didn’t mean the thing they are pointing out, so they are pointing it out to mock that perspective”, they just accept it face value, and then when called out on it go “poe’s law” or argue that the fact that they didn’t understand says a lot about society instead of doing any introspection.
When did rage against the machine go woke?
Edit: Damn. It’s funny how much you all suck.
Before they formed as a band.

It’s all good. Here I was thinking I was laying it on pretty thick given the context, but here we are. 🤷
It turns out Lemmy is full of humorless morons.
Rage against the machine going woke is a very common joke on the internet. XD
