Are people who claim not to know what other people mean by “woke” just being disingenuous?

    There are a few worthy criticisms here of a real "kind of guy". But I don't think "anti-woke" is nearly so specific about what it actually opposes, rather it uses the mask of being frustrated with constantly shifting language requirements, political immaterialism, etc. to weld more normal people to the real project of dismantling any attempt at changing our material reality toward a more just and equitable one, of reinforcing hierarchy, punishing the other, and using them as an example and as a locus for hatred.
