There was a term in usage in my home state, Alabama, before my time — a term for people seen as too concerned with the rights of people on society’s margins.
That term was “n––er lover,” if you wonder.
Anyhow: that’s what comes to mind when I hear “are Democrats too woke?”

Am I saying anyone using “woke” as a pejorative might as well be using the N-word? No.
What I _am_ saying is that this article on America’s penchant for reactionary backlash is spot on — and with the words “too woke,” one identifies oneself with the latest backlash.

But don’t just take my word about this.

Yes: some precision _would_ make the “too woke?” discourse more productive. Far more.
