Heart attacks have probably killed more CEOs than anything, but I wouldn’t call them woke.

I complain about Woke a lot and I’m a dyed in the wool leftist to be fair. There’s a broader spectrum of opinion out there.

What I read is his friends identified him as economically leftist, but took issue with identity politics

Which depending on context could be as simple as “I dont care ill mind my own business you mind yours.” which I suspect is what most folks opinions boil down to.

The problem with that is that oppression injustice, and inequity are often based on a person‘s identity

Why do you blame Democrats for identity politics and not Republicans for passing laws based on identity politics?

I don’t believe that the democrats actually based their entire platform on identity politics. That’s more a right wing issue, in that they have an issue with the existence of certain groups of people.

I don’t remember seeing a trans person as a speaker at any of the rallies for the DNC, for instance.
