Was "Woke 1" Crazy?

Zam-Zam

Senator
A lot of conservatives thought it was, and were ridiculed for it by some folks on the left.

Now at least one Democrat seems to be conceding that the conservatives were correct:


Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) on Sunday quoted a New York City Council member in describing Wisconsin gubernatorial candidate Francesca Hong’s (D) past positions, saying “Woke 1 was crazy.”

ABC News’s “This Week” host Jonathan Karl asked Ocasio-Cortez in an interview about her opinion on Hong’s past stances and statements, including urging Americans to “cancel Thanksgiving.” The New York lawmaker said Hong has “moved away from it.”


“And I have a local city councilman that has this saying that ‘Woke 1 was crazy,'” she added, causing her and Karl to laugh. “And I think that what’s important is that we have to assess what a candidate is saying now.”

I heard one commentator a few weeks back (can't remember which one) predicting that many Democrats would try to distance themselves from "woke". This seems to support that idea.

So, is woke dead? Or just being re-branded?

AOC has also backed away from the whole "Defund the Police" BS ....

But, you know that is still at the core of her Communist beliefs.

Ah, but those quotes live forever on the internet:


“Defunding police means defunding police,” the congresswoman said in a statement. “It does not mean budget tricks or funny math. It does not mean moving school police officers from the NYPD budget to the Department of Education’s budget so the exact same police remain in schools.”...

...Ocasio-Cortez said that cutting the police budget is not effective if it does not result in the reduced presence of law enforcement.


“It does not mean counting overtime cuts as cuts, even as NYPD ignores every attempt by City Council to curb overtime spending and overspends on overtime anyways,” Ocasio-Cortez said. “If these reports are accurate, then these proposed ‘cuts’ to the NYPD budget are a disingenuous illusion. This is not a victory. The fight to defund policing continues.”

It seems she is concealing her beliefs to make them more palatable to the majority. Which is a very un-communist thing to do.
