It doesn't matter how/if they're linked to the attack, just that he said the magic evil words. Kind of like socialism and communism.

Kind of like socialism and communism.

Don't forget:

  • Unions
  • Minimum wage

  • Rehabilitation

If anyone but a Christian white man does a crime it's because society has been working too hard (doing the bare minimum) to treat everyone else with the dignity they deserve?

Any crime could be framed as a failure in prevention, and any such failure could be blamed on "woke". It's the magic scapegoat.

Well, until people like him lose their jobs for this kind of malice people will continue to believe it or believe that it stems from stupidity until the “woke” are in cages with the public blessing.

I'm afflicted by the Woke Mind Virus™, so it's safe to say I'm Woke as Hell.

It's not "bizarre;" it's "fraudulent" and "blood libel" and "incitement."

They're so consistently dumb and evil that you can forget this is the behavior of a terrorist.

They’re psychopaths
