Florida governor Ron DeSantis spoke at the Faith and Freedom Coalition's annual gathering in Washington DC, today and made sure to smear the LGBTQ+ community in his remarks about his only topic he breathes: "Woke"
Ralph Reed's organization of Christian fascists are hosting a plethora of evangelical Republicans including Mike Pence, Sen. Tim Scott, former Arkansas Gov. Asa Hutchinson, former U.S. Ambassador Nikki Haley, Miami Mayor Francis Suarez, businessman Vivek Ramaswamy, talk show host Larry Elder, and Chris Christie.
“Woke” now means everything Republicans do not approve of in any shape or form and Meatball Ron made sure to fling his signature policy issue at attendees.
And some people say not to worry about Woke, that it's not something that we should be concerned.
First of all, having a society that's rooted in truth is important.
Don't tell me that a man can get pregnant and expect me to accept that.
I will not accept that, and we cannot have a society that accepts that.
But even aside from that, don't think that Woke doesn't have an impact on your life and will really be able to have a devastating impact if it takes hold even further.
When Woke takes our economy by things like ESG, the average person becomes poorer as a result of that.
When Woke overtakes the education system, the average student becomes dumber as a result of that.
When Woke overtakes our criminal justice system like it has in San Francisco, like it has in Los Angeles, the average person becomes less safe in their communities as a result
I think Ron finds it icky to talk about uteruses and ovaries.
In just a few short years somehow "woke" has taken over and destroyed the entire country, in his mind. But what is “woke?” For bigots like Ron, try substituting the word “Black” for “woke” and you’ll catch his drift.
If only Donald Trump stayed awake during the arrival of Covid 19 - maybe thousands more Americans would still be alive.
When you are bereft of ideas in right-wing circles and you get lost, just yell the word "woke' over and over again and you will regain the crowd.
