According to Ron DeSantis, 54% of Americans (including 1/3 of Republicans) are WOKE!!!

 




In December 2022, Ron DeSantis' attorneys, in arguing why a judge should not halt the "Stop WOKE" Act, were required to provide a definition of "woke." Here is what they provided:

“DeSantis' lawyers were forced by the court to define "woke." The lead lawyer described it as "The belief there are systemic injustices in American society and the need to address them."

OOPS.

Turns out, that by that definition, Americans across the nation are "woke" by nearly a 2-1 margin.

Here's the money quote from the analysis of the new Yahoo News/YouGov poll on how many Americans believe (or don't) that systemic racism exists here:

Asked if there is “a problem with systemic racism in America,” nearly every demographic group says yes more often than not: Democrats (by a 63-point margin), Black Americans (by a 61-point margin), adults under 30 (by a 28-point margin), independents (by a 26-point margin) and even white Americans (by a 13-point margin). Overall, far more Americans say yes, the U.S. has a problem with systemic racism (54%) than say no, it does not (30%).

The only groups that say no more often than not are on the right: Republicans (by a 15-point margin) and Trump voters (by a 33-point margin).

If you think about it, this gets even worse for the far right.

Why?

It turns out that 33% of Republican and even 26% of Trump voters believe systemic racism is a problem in America today (see breakout results below)"

You get that?

According to Ron DeSantis, 33% of Republicans are "woke."
