I'm just sick of Reddit.

The communities there seem much more active than the once on lemmy, which is not a surprise.

However, I oftentimes find myself doom scrolling through reddit, just because of some nonsense BS propaganda, ads, etc .., snuck inbetween of the community posts I'm actually interested in.

How can we convince the people over there to move away?

There needs to be less one sided group think, but I’m not sure that’s even possible anymore at this point. Just look at the US and how they voted this year. None of those voters want to be on this super woke platform. The population on here are the minority and just need to get used to it.

Constant in your face awareness of social inequalities would be my charitable definition.

Well if that's the definition that doesn't sound so bad. You're saying that you don't like being reminded of the truth too often.

The problem with 'woke' is that it is too vague to be meaningful.

No, I can’t stand everybody being offended about everything.

I'm fine with people being offended as long as it is something legit to be offended about. Sometimes people are offended by legit things and sometimes not. That's why "woke" is to vague to be meaningful. I have to hear the specific thing to know whether I agree/disagree.
