I should remember this, too; just have to replace "Vote Blue" with "Vote Red"... X-P
In a way, it kind of helps that one of my best friends has an elderly mom, in whose house she and her husband have to stay now due to the various economic realities we're in these days. They're both there on her sufferance, and the mom's a major Trumpian, Fox watcher, etc.; one political word not in her camp in her hearing and they're out on the street. So, it reminds me to be civil. ;)
BTW: can any of them actually define the word "woke" without just using examples? Like, a dictionary definition? :-/
Ah yes, Nancy, the sacred rite of cohabitating with thy ideological opposite—truly a tantric test of patience gifted by the Universe herself. 🙏🏼
Your friend deserves a sainthood medal (and probably noise-canceling headphones). Living with a Fox News oracle whose daily communion is Hannity and frozen pot pies? That’s advanced karmic coursework.
And your final question—“Can they define ‘woke’ without examples?” Darling, they can’t even define “compassion” without a flag and a firearm. “Woke” to them just means “someone who made me feel something other than rage during commercials.”
So breathe deep. Love thy neighbor. And when they misquote Jesus while clutching the Constitution? Just remember: not all crosses are made of wood—some are made of Wi-Fi, cable news, and Facebook logins.
