They're turning the bombs gay.

[-] Milk_Sheikh@lemm.ee 67 points 1 month ago

The bombs change your pronouns to “was/collateral damage” 🥰

I heard they’re developing a bomb that makes people gay.

[-] samus12345@lemmy.world 8 points 1 month ago

I would say that would solve a lot of problems, but there are a lot of closeted self-hating conservatives.

That's actually how I feel like many are arguing. I don't like it, because it's woke. And it's woke, because I don't like it

Apparently, Google is the queen of woke.

[-] samus12345@lemmy.world 31 points 1 month ago

It's annoying that these big, evil corporations that woke people hate are considered "woke" by conservatives.

It's simply amazing to consider YouTube an enemy when YouTube is basically the soul reason right wing propaganda has spread to the level that it has today. YouTube is the breeding ground for the alt right. Their complaint is literally the opposite of reality, and as I type that I realize I've typed that a lot before haven't I? Same old shit I guess.

Fellas, is it woke for YouTube to funnel viewers towards pro-fascist videos?

Treating everyone with basic human decency = "woke"

Truck drivin', bible-thumpin', gun totin' knuckledragger in Texas:
"I ain't gonna buy Lockeed Martin products, I'm gonna boycott them! Make 'murica grate agin!"
Proceeds to angrily keep on NOT buying surface-to-air missiles.

as a truck driving, gun toting redneck in texas I'd absolutely buy a SAM if I could, and paint it up in rainbows

I was curious if they actually bothered to define what "woke" is. Obviously they don't, you can't define the boogey man.

I did find their "how do we rate things" page and the first criteria is: "do they donate to social justice causes."

How do you literally say "I am against social justice" and think you're the good guy?

[-] Bernie_Sandals@lemmy.world 27 points 1 month ago

How do you literally say "I am against social justice" and think you're the good guy?

By first declaring "Social Justice Warriors" to be the enemy and bashing against them at every step for a decade.

What the actual fuck!?

Woke, when boiled down to its very basic premise is: giving a shit about other people in society.

They're against that so much so that they make websites like this to avoid giving money to corporations that pretend to value other people's existence?

God I hate propagandists so fucking much...

[-] Lemzlez@lemmy.world 19 points 1 month ago

Don't forget they’re usually also agains cancel culture, which makes this even better.

Pretty sure the people actually using it in a derogatory manner don't care about common usage or meaning and use it as a placeholder for the n* word when talking in public. Urban, woke, DEI, East coast elite, etc is all just bigotry and racism.

I wonder if the Rights theory of "go woke, go broke" will stand up to Lockheed Martins profit margin during two wars.....

[-] DragonTypeWyvern@midwest.social 23 points 1 month ago

Fun Fact: Novelist John Ringo is usually given credit for inventing that slogan.

John Ringo currently has trouble getting his novels published under his own name because he started going mask off and now has to post his racist shit to Substack.

Is this an app, a website? I need to start finding those woke businesses so I can be sure to buy from them.

Boeing is also woke according to them lol. I know someone who interned at boeing. They made him watch a mandatory anti-racism video where they weirdly focused on racism against white people.

Boeing is the opposite of woke.

[-] flamingo_pinyata@sopuli.xyz 30 points 1 month ago

Mandatory training always covers things some idiot once did, and now everyone has to suffer through dumb videos.

Do you have a portrait of Hitler hanging above your bed? No? Woke!

“Liberate yourself from the corporate wokehold.”

Thank you. I haven’t even looked up any companies yet and it’s already hilarious!

[-] flamingo_pinyata@sopuli.xyz 12 points 1 month ago

Thanks, finally we can easily avoid "woke free" companies

Sorry guys, Pfizer is "Extremely Woke" too.

[-] Bassman1805@lemmy.world 8 points 1 month ago

I mean, that was obvious to anybody paying attention in 2021.

Their methodology is basically this :

  1. Find news articles about the company
  2. If it's a positive article about the company's environmental work, inclusion statements or supports any Biden policies then BAM woke.
  3. If it's an article about the company donations to election denying politicians, about the company being accused of racism or about Republican donations then it gets stamped non woke.
  4. Average the results and profit!

I'm not sure how many articles they "find" or how they decide which ones to include but this website is as hilarious as it is sad. Imagine being so afraid of the word "woke" that you feel the need curate a list of companies to avoid.

As a joke I was looking for general everyday items they might’ve sold but now I feel like I’m on a new list.

I'm looking at their page for General Mills and I'm like "which part of this is so disagreeable that you'd boycott them?" 😂

[-] Dendr0@fedia.io 12 points 1 month ago

Looked at the main homepage... the "not woke" companies seem to be mostly "natural health/holistic" bullshit like you'd hear Alex Jones scream about.

A website dedicated to telling you whether it's woke or not. From a commercial perspective, that's bloody brilliant.

(From any other perspective it's a bloody shame.)

A community for your defence shitposting needs

Rules

1. Be niceDo not make personal attacks against each other, call for violence against anyone, or intentionally antagonize people in the comment sections.

2. Explain incorrect defense articles and takes

If you want to post a non-credible take, it must be from a "credible" source (news article, politician, or military leader) and must have a comment laying out exactly why it's non-credible. Random twitter and YouTube comments belong in the Low Hanging Fruit thread.

3. Content must be relevant

Posts must be about military hardware or international security/defense. This is not the page to fawn over Youtube personalities, simp over political leaders, or discuss other areas of international policy.

4. No racism / hatespeech

No slurs. No advocating for the killing of people or insulting them based on physical, religious, or ideological traits.

5. No politics

We don't care if you're Republican, Democrat, Socialist, Stalinist, Baathist, or some other hot mess. Leave it at the door. This applies to comments as well.

6. No seriousposting

We don't want your uncut war footage, fundraisers, credible news articles, or other such things. The world is already serious enough as it is.

7. No classified material

Classified information is off limits regardless of how "open source" and "easy to find" it is.

8. Source artwork

If you use somebody's art in your post or as your post, the OP must provide a direct link to the art's source in the comment section, or a good reason why this was not possible (such as the artist deleting their account). The source should be a place that the artist themselves uploaded the art. A booru is not a source. A watermark is not a source.

9. No low-effort posts

No egregiously low effort posts. These include Social media screenshots with a title punchline / no punchline, recent (after the start of the Ukraine War) reposts, simple reaction & template memes, and images with the punchline in the title. Put these in weekly Low effort thread instead.

10. Don't get us banned

No brigading or harassing other communities. Do not post memes with a "haha people that I hate died… haha" punchline or violating the sh.itjust.works rules (below). This includes content illegal in Canada.
