Eager to prove her complete lack compassion and intelligence, Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO) went on Twitter and proudly declared that she would “never go woke.”
The word “woke” is defined by the Merriam-Webster dictionary as:
“Aware of and actively attentive to important societal facts and issues (especially issues of racial and social justice).”
How being aware and attentive to important facts and issues related to race and social justice a bad thing? Had it not been for the actions and words of leaders like Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., this country might still be segregated.
Women’s rights are also a matter of “wokeness.” Would Boebert prefer that we deny women the right to vote or serve in Congress? There was a time when that was the case.
So Lauren is bragging about being unenlightened and ignorant. That’s not surprising, but it’s not exactly something to be proud of, as Twitter users reminded her.
