You know, before you post a video to support the boycott of Bud Lite you should make sure of what you're doing before posting it. Case in point, Rep. Dan Crenshaw decided to post a video of him throwing out all the Bud Lite in his refrigerator. When he opens the frig it turns out there is no Bud lite.

So any company who believes Gay people should have the same rights as white christian nationals, is to be destroyed?
I sigh in your general direction.

Conservatives are at the moral level of spoiled children or jealous boyfriends.

So, conservatives tell Bud Light that if they advertise to sell beer to trans people, they won't buy that beer!

That's the whole "woke" thing in a nutshell.

I mean, I don't go to Chic Fil A because of the way they treat gay people. I don't care who they try to sell their food to.

I has a major breakdown yesterday and my truck will be down a week to 10 days
Thankfully next to a casino where 3 days in a row I have drank a couple beers
I have yet to see a budweiser or bud light be sold.
Now there have been Michilob light and Modello sold. I ve counted 4 bottles.
I am in Louisiana which normally would be a bud light stronghold

So, imported Mexican beer, instead of an American beer?

An American beer that donates money to the GOP?

You must be proud.

Incorrect. Grupo Modelo is a large brewery in Mexico that exports beer to most countries of the world. Its export brands include Corona, Modelo, and Pacífico.

Anytime you use 'woke' as a derogatory adjective, I conclude that you're a racist. If you're anti-woke, you're pro-racist. It's just how the math works.

Anyway, carry on.
Just so you know. Calling someone a racist these days means nothing. It used to but not anymore. It’s been over used whenever there is a disagreement of policy. So use it all you want. Means nothing.

The woke left used the word nazi so much it became so meaningless they switched to fascist.
Now everyone is a racist or homophobic etc to the point that term is meaningless.

I respect your opinion but believe it would have more weight if you had a similar opinion about adjectives directed at conservatives

The GOP has a massive WS following and a lot of WS members elected to office. That’s a fact. They also embrace fascism, that is a fact. Donald Trump is a Fascist. That is a fact. Anf their policies are ripe with blatant homophobia and bigotry. Glenn can lash out and say it’s meaningless, but he can’t deal with reality and will defend the GOP, no matter what.

Meanwhile, the irony is the GOP uses woke for everything now, and he parrots it, just like they call anyone who doesn’t support Trump a commie or a rhino.

Which is actually pretty funny considering he constantly idolizes Xi, Kim, Putin and quotes Lenin. Like he did last night.

I didn't want to comment on the Lenin deal but it was obvious he was comparing the liberal democratic party to Lenin

Defending Trump again. The fact is, he constantly idolizes Xi, Putin and Kim. Constantly. There's a clip right after it where he's talking about his fabulous relationship with Kim again, and how Kim hates Biden, as though that's bad thing. Any vile dictator should despise a western leader who stands for democracy. That means Biden is doing something right. I expect you to come back and defend this somehow and move the goal posts on world dictators.

It's not a disagreement of policy, it's going by the actual definition of 'woke'. You don't get to redefine it to suit your purposes. If being anti-woke is your thing, have at it but, just so you know, it makes you a racist. Or, y'know, just use a different word.

False. Calling the GOP out on on racism is every decent person’s duty. Just because you say it’s meaningless because you don’t like it doesn’t make it so.

They have embraced full racism and bigotry. Our Jewish friend isnt safe around them, our Gay Black friend isnt safe around them, but you and I also are not.

Every violent thing predicted has come to pass, and yet they still sit here daily saying there is nothing going on.

And Toonces is correct. The term woke is steeped in racism, bigotry and misogyny. The term is used to trash everything the right is uncomfortable with, from transgendered and gay people, to minorities and women. Every movie, TV show, book or video game that has lead female characters, minorities, gay or transgendered characters and actors is trashed by the right as “woke.” That’s a fact.

Matter of opinion I guess. Seems to me whenever anyone disagrees with the liberal line that are racist, Nazi, fascist, bigots and every kind of “phobe” you guys can come up with. When you can’t argue the facts of the policy, let rip with the slurs.

So they may mean a whole lot to you but they mean nothing to me anymore.

They hate anyone who has the nerve to demand equal rights unless they are white/str8t/xtian/rightwing/males. They really hate it, you can see it right here on this board.

I generally don't call names or make accusations.

I'm not calling anyone racist. I'm saying that if you're "against woke", you're saying you're racist. Just use a different term. anti-woke is synonymous with 'pro-racism'.

The term woke goes back to the 30s to remind black people to be aware of their surroundings, and keep their eyes open because their freedom and safety demanded it.

Realistically, what it comes down to, what some oppose while calling it 'woke' is just being a decent person. Don't be an asshole, that's what we 'woke' people advocate for. Let LGBTQ people just be, invite them to a seat at the table. Don't like drag queens or transgender? Fine. Don't be one. Let others be who they are. I really don't understand why this is such a hard concept.

I don’t agree that being anti-woke is admitting or saying anything but you don’t agree with the policies identifies as woke. I wasn’t living in the 30’s and many terms used today mean something different than they did 90 years ago.

I am a live and let live person myself. So if you want to start there, I’m good with that. If you don’t use names, I’ll do my best to treat you as you treat me. That’s fair. That’s decent.

You don't vote like live-and-let live. You vote for the government to come down on people's rights to live and let live. Everything you vote for is against what you said you supported on this board.
