They are so close to realizing that the word is as meaningless as “woke”
It isn’t meaningless, in the same way “woke” isn’t meaningless. It is purely reactionary. A primal visceral hatred of change, of a shift in status (particularly their own), of anything that might - even superficially - undermine their own sense of supremacy.

BARS holy shit. I think that’s my favorite line I’ve seen posted here all fuckin month.

Strange fruit was a reference to black people hanging from trees.
