B402, Any two misrepresenting "woke" as both Musk and Maher do doesn't need more context. However since you went there ..

Hang on, i thought it was liberals who were against free speech! The evidence sure as hell isn't pointing that way. From yours:
"The Assholery Is the Point"
"In Arkansas, new governor Sarah Huckabee Sanders (forgot that happened, didn't you?) has issued an executive order banning the use of "Latinx" from official communications and documents. And it's not enough that they are doing the asshole move. They have to go all Joe McCarthy on everything.
[...]
DeSantis is working on levels of assholery that are almost metaphysically assholish. There's his battle with anything he sees as "woke," which I guess means "shit that makes straight white guys feel like they don't have all the power." In addition to the "Don't Say 'Gay'" bill, which bans any discussion of gender identity or sexuality in most school settings, and the "Stop WOKE Act," which prevents teaching anything that makes anyone sad about history, DeSantis and the nutzoid Republican legislature are now demanding that all Florida colleges and universities that receive any state funds to "report costs associated with campus diversity, equity and inclusion programs," meaning any "staff, programs, and campus activities related to diversity, equity, and inclusion, and critical race theory.
"

B402, "...and good intentions it started with..." Briboy - Evangelicals perfected cancel culture. Now it’s coming for them.
Throughout the 1980s and 1990s, church youth groups coordinated book burnings and music bonfires...
[...]
Also, might have it wrong, but i get the feeling that all the Republican cancelling
around these days is also sorta dealing in what they condemn as woke stuff too. See:
conix, You either still don't accept the fact it's misrepresentation of CRT, more than the guts of what CRT itself is and is meant to achieve, which millions object to. You know millions don't understand it well. You know you have abused the concept of woke. You know you have abused and misrepresented CRT. Either you don't understand millions reject CRT because they don't understand it and because they believe the misrepresentation of it, or you do and are lying about it in pretending you don't. Also i don't think CRT is a Democrat policy. If that's right even there you misrepresent. The fact it's an issue at all is because it has been established as one in a conservative manufactured culture war. See (should be all again for you, much of it is):
P - Ah. Thank you for the Rufo mention. Maher should have included that. Rufo is a culture war creator of the most disingenuous kind.
