That's a great sentiment and often the opposite of the vibe Reddit provides to commenters 😅

That messages a very confused because they will judge you based on what you do. Judgment is not an abstract thing that is disconnected from behaviors.

That's stuff is hilarious - no need to worry about reflecting reality when it's elves. Go for it!

Woke != reality at all. That's the problem. Woke tends in indicate virtue signaling at the cost of reality. Look at the media that is considered woke aka Netflix. One person of each gender/race in every show does not at all reflect reality.

Look at the cultural gender concept in the woke world that suggests men and women are no different. This is not reality and is in direct opposition to science. There are biological differences in the brain, much less the bodies.

The trickiest question of all: what if racism isn't the only cause of unequal outcomes in different racial groups? What if group x needs treatment beyond equality to have equal outcomes? If so, would that be desirable at the level of society and laws? These questions can not even be investigated, much less addressed, because the left is just as anti science as the right - woke being a huge example.

Exactly, thank you. If we can't talk about what's actually happening, we can't possibly fix anything. This is one of the biggest problems with being overly woke, because people pretend the issues are things other than what they are.
