Nothing to do with offending minorities then?
Therefore nothing to do with wokism.
And swiftly retracted.
So nothing to do with wokism again.
So your examples have nothing to do with 'wokism'.

Woke is not a word I use. But the examples I gave, and there will be plenty more, are examples of why many people believe things has gone too far. I have always been a great advocate against any sort of discrimination. It's just some of this more silly stuff I now object to.

Why Oxford students have banned clapping
Motion to replace applause with jazz hands has faced condemnation and mockery

Amid backlash, Stanford removes "harmful language" list
The university’s effort to remove racist, violent and biased language from its website morphed into a PR disaster. Other colleges’ initiatives have fared better—perhaps because they are less transparent in their practices.

As far as the Oxford issue is concerned, it was a concern that some students, who have sensory issues, or use hearing aids, may be caused anxiety by the noise.
It is a sensible and empathetic policy, if there are such students in the audience.
If you used hearing aids, you may appreciate the decision.
Perhaps you decry the choice of using sign language at public events also.
Let's exclude those who have sensory issues or use hearing aids.
Do you not want to be empathetic to such students who may be overwhelmed by noise?
The Stanford Uni policy was retracted.
We're at the self praising stageI had to read that twice, the second time more slowly, in order to understand exactly what you were saying.
An excellent definition of woke. It'll leave those using the word, totally baffled.
Have you tried it as a tongue twister?
Or it would really work as drinking game. Recite it, and if you make a mistake, you pay a forfeit.
Time to call the men in white coats!

You are under a misapprehension.
Asking a sensible question and expecting a sensible answer from an extremely abusive semiliterate person is a waste of time and energy.
He is incapable of posting a comment without resorting to abuse. He believes it validates his superior intellect.
It validates his level of intellect alright, just not in the way he thinks it does.
Not everyone, but you do.
That sketch fits yourself perfectly.
I answered above.
Stop supporting your own posts, it makes you more of a nutcase that you already are.
As good a collective a noun as any.

No. Clapping is not banned at Oxford Uni.
Happy to help.
How’s
How’s the Monster Raving Loony Party doing these days?
Can I suggest it might be the other way round?
The problem with both fascists and communists is that they are very difficult to vote out because when the polling looks bad for them the elections become rigged or even cancelled.
Should Reform look very strong come 2029 there will be an event of some kind and election will be cancelled. Or perhaps Farage will get nicked.

I'm probably being thick, but I don't really understand what you mean. Who are the fascists and/or communists in this scenario?
