Who compared woke to destroying democracy? Are these more DeSantis talking points you're strawmanning? Its so easy to defeat an enemy that you set up qnd doesn't actually exist.

And you say fascism is bad as if the totalitarianism sold and repackaged by liberals isn't equally worse. People who controls your thoughts and speech are not much better than those who tell you not to do things. They're doing the same thing but in a more insidious manner so you can't even debate the points or else you get called sexist, racist , transphobe or whatever

It's not a straw man, Google the quote. DeSantis lawyers literally said that was the definition of woke.

Why are you so triggered by facts?

I don't think you know what a straw man is. A straw man is when you deliberately make bad arguments that you say the opponent is making.

A straw man is NOT quoting something someone directly said. A lawyer representing DeSaintis in a court of law. Google it, I double dog dare you.

So when you say woke, you need to clarify what you mean. Do you mean mildly annoying internet wokescolds? Or do you mean that β€œthe belief there are systemic injustices in American society and the need to address them.” is just as bad as attempting a Fascist coup against the U.S. government and trying to end Democracy?
