    You can't comment on the political inclinations of working class black voters using typical US vocabulary without Woke Twitter going apeshit

        This is why liberal/left online discourse is in a death spiral: they're obsessed with word games and phony posturing. It's fatal.

        They can't communicate normally with anyone outside their rarified online clique. They prioritize using the correct lingo over substance.

        instead, you wanted to get cute, and get attention, by separating "ordinary black" and "woke, black ppl I don't like."

        have you considered actually listening to what people are saying rather than getting defensive? it's a pretty cool thing to do.

        Some black folk criticised you for talking about black folk, and your reaction is a tantrum? Way to throw your toys out the pram.

        Why do you think you know about the "political inclinations of working class black voters" and what is "typical US vocabulary"?

        Whose “typical US vocabulary” may be a better question. That is not how black people talk about each other.

        If you don't want to be seen as racist maybe don't characterize black people's offense to you writing about them as "going ape...."
