Hammering For Labour In Hartlepool

[LeningradCowboy]

I looked up "woke" in an online dictionary, it said;-

"alert to injustice in society, especially racism."

The OED defines it as:-

"originally: well-informed, up-to-date. Now chiefly: alert to racial or social discrimination and injustice".

Now, I would be quite pleased to have someone describe me in such a manner, in fact, I'd be proud. However, now it appears on the ticlkist that all right wingers appear to use these days, it seems to be used more in a negative way with the person being described as "woke" being someone who should be despised - given how the term is defined in dictionaries, that says so much about the people who use the term in such a way nowadays.

So, are you saying that LOM meant his use of woke as a compliment?
