Woke
Basic human decency
--Mary Trump

Jun 25, 2023 Gov. Ron DeSantis has toured the country calling Florida the place "where woke goes to die."

"Woke is a slang term that is easing into the mainstream from some varieties of a dialect called African American Vernacular English (sometimes called AAVE). In AAVE, awake is often rendered as woke, as in, 'I was sleeping, but now I'm woke.'."

I suppose it's somewhat synonymous with the black term, "soul," not a soul but "soul."

I thought Florida was where schoolkids went to die.

Yeah, that too.

Mary Trump called woke "basic human decency."
With that definition in mind, Florida is where basic human decency goes to die.
