Leave it to Erick Erickson to put this whole ‘wokeness’ business into perspective.
Honestly, we just wish spellcheck would figure out that using the word ‘woke’ as an adjective is not an error … but we digress.
Erick nailed this:

HA!
Ok, so if being woke was actually a thing then in our opinion this is perhaps the WOKEST tweet EVER.
Which means people who think they have the market cornered on wokeness were totally freaked out.
How’d you explain trolling ? Just read them this tweet?

Psh, this wasn’t very woke of Travis.
@EWErickson Really? What do you tell them about being filled with the spirit?

See? Fussy McFussypants.
So you're explaining to your kids that not agreeing with you is a form of mental illness. Interesting. I think that's a form of child-abuse.

Dafuq?
sounds like the definition of a man who has not yet awakened from his dogmatic slumber.

If only these people were joking.
Well then again, the joke wouldn’t be on them and we wouldn’t have as much fun writing about it so … meh.

If you were a good, responsible parent, you’d let your kids discover how they felt about that for themselves. Instead, you try to make them in your own image rather than let their unique individuality blossom.

Totally missing that this was Erick’s point. We see lots and lots and lots of people tweeting about their ‘woke’ kids having meaningful discussions on world politics when really we know that they’re either lying or they’ve indoctrinated their kiddos already.
To make them woke.
To put woke in terms you can understand. It’s like “ I once was blind, but now I see”
