Normal Americans Never Spoke “Woke”

The reasons that voters elected Donald Trump included concerns about inflation and immigration. But some liberal centrists – such as New York Rep. Tom Suozzi and Massachusetts Rep. Seth Moulton – have also said voters were tired of causes promoted by social-justice warriors.

A new poll from YouGov highlights just how few Americans are marinated in “woke” culture.  Just 20% of adults said that they regularly used the term “safe space,” the most popular of the 30 woke terms tested. Other terms trailed further and further behind, including “white privilege”, “trigger warnings”, “gender non-binary”, and “woke” itself.  Only 15% of Black adults use the term “antiracism.”

Maureen Dowd, the sharp-knives columnist, noted in a recent column that almost no Hispanics ever use the term “Latin X.” And we hope readers don’t disparage today’s HOTLINE as a “microaggression.” (That’s the first time we’ve ever written that term.)
