    Look, considering you don’t know what wokeness is, I’ll spell it out for you: wokeness is critical theory, which states that, among other things, inequality is inherently bad or wrong, and must be rectified. You don’t need to adhere to critical theory to observe that such inequalities exist though.

    You can learn more about Critical Theory here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Critical_theory

    Or about critical theory applied to race, commonly known as Critical Race Theory or CRT, here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Critical_race_theory

    That’s my serious answer, with everything you need to know. After this we can be as silly or goofy as you like.

      Since your issue is with critical race theory, and you have stated in multiple comments that the problem with critical race theory is that it says inequality and hierarchy is bad, specifically when it comes to race, I guess its safe to assume you are a racist, then?

          If you adhere to CRT, I’m sure you would agree, even though I’m black, since under the CRT framework, it’s not about hating races, but not advocating for equality of outcomes across ethnic lines. And this is how you get stuff like “conservatism is white supremacy” and whatnot.

          It’s all a bit silly, but if you’re down with the silliness, go ahead. Call me, a black man, racist for disagreeing with Donald Glover, a man I greatly respect.

      I promise you that you never knew anything about critical race theory before republicans told you to be afraid of it like a year ago.
