Awake not woke --------------------- I am observing a pattern recently, it is a gimmick based on the concept of time. If you see what is actually happening and how it is done, maybe you will spot other gimmicks that use the same technique. The trick is to use language to make people believe that there is no more change possible in an ever-changing system. Here are a few examples, the use of the word woke implies that this where someone would arrive when they are awake and there is no more change possible. While in reality being awake is observing things as they change. Being awake doesn't require rigidity, while the concept of woke is rigid because it implies no more change. Few other examples are settled science and the market has spoken. The former is used by vaccine pushers and the latter is used by BTC maxis, both of them imply that there is no more change possible to an ever-changing system like science and the markets. So, the next time when someone uses this time/language trick on you be vigilant and don't fall for it.
