This is it. Well organised and destructive conservatives across much of the western world, have conspired successfully to nullify the positive effect of a word once used to elide wide ranging ideas and discussions on the subject of social justice. This is social media at it's most galling. Though alongside that, we now have a wider appreciation of a long list historical crimes, and the longstanding effect of those transgressions. In that sense, we have all become 'woke'. |

For example, is a discussion about the defacement of the Black Hills a 'priggish' waste of time, or a valuable lesson about the real history of the United States?
