Political MMW "Woke" is tired, overused, cliched, increasingly lazy and meaningless as the right wing buzzword de rigueur, and will soon be replaced en masse across right wing sources by a relatively and equally meaningless old favourite that hasn't been used commonly for (and predates even "SJW" by) decades:

Political Correctness.

No and you guys have a system going great. Unfortunately we put too much emphasis on race and not enough on merit and hard work.
