    “Woke” has been a term most white people were just unaware of for decades. “Gaslighting” is from a century-old story.

        What? You always liked the term gaslighting, you must be misremembering things.

          You’re definitely mistaken I don’t think I’ve ever even said gaslighting in my life, what is it?

      Idk if it existed before, but iirc it began as a reference to matrix.

      Then redpilled came as the parallel, as in Neo takes the red pill and wakes up from the simulation (woke), but the meaning was utterly twisted to say people that have taken the republican pill and are brainwashed.

      Redpilled people using woke to describe people that, in their minds, have been brainwashed, is extremely funny with this context.

      I’m kinda sad that we lost the “take the red pill” term due to them tho.

        “Woke” predates the Matrix. It meant you’d “woken up” to the underlying racist structures in the US. RATM’s “Wake Up” was the needle drop at the end for that reason.

          Yeah, for sure, but the meaning is all in all the same, the waking up after the red pill in the matrix is used as a metaphor for the same concept.

            Yes, the point is that’s how white folks were introduced to it.

        Woke predates the matrix by like 60 years

      Exactly, they were old unused terms that people revived with a new meaning. Slop was not like that.
