The Next Big Lies: Jan. 6 Was No Big Deal, or a Left-Wing Plot
How revisionist histories of Jan. 6 picked up where the “stop the steal” campaign left off, warping beliefs about what transpired at the Capitol.
(As the famous Union Song asks, "Whose side are you on?)

MAJ Karl Swenson - Hi Karl, good to see you! It seems like everyone on the Right have their own "understanding" of "woke". Bottom line... it's used primarily accusing someone of "blah...blah....blah"... they are "woke. IMO... Thanks for your comments.

Lyle, only a moron thinks that rioters who committed arson are "peaceful protesters." But rioters of the type you described were not trying to overthrow the government of the United States by blocking certification of an election. But thank's for acknowledging that you don't have anything relevant to contribute.

SGT (Join to see) - I think I know the definition of "woke." However, it appears that the definition has flip-flopped in the past few years. In 2017, "woke" was defined by Merriam-Webster as "aware of and actively attentive to important facts and issues (especially issues of racial and social justice)." The Oxford dictionary adopted it the same year, defining it as "originally: well-informed, up-to-date." But now it seems that the conservatives have changed the meaning to an idea or someone who is more intolerant of conservative beliefs and values.
So, the reason I asked SPC Lyle Montgomery for his definition of "woke" was to see if he is simply jumping on a bandwagon of conservative speak or if he truly understands. But then, we can make our own assumptions, especially given the definition of Whataboutism offered just above (or below, depending on where the electronic editor decides) graciously provided by Capt Gregory Prickett. "Oh yeah? So what about this, or what about that?" Reminds me of a playground argument...
