New Year, new me. Nah. I'm fine just the way I am. Doing the things I love. Like enjoying

0:07.7

a latte on the bus with some music or on a walk with a friend. My only resolution is

0:14.8

to enjoy more of what I love. Like switching up my usual with oat, soy, almond or coconut.

0:22.0

All delicious non-dairy alternatives available at Starbucks. For no extra charge. While Stox

Last, subject to availability. Hi guys. Welcome back to the Liz Wheeler show. So there's this new

0:33.7

popular narrative that you'll hear from the left. Whether you're on Twitter, whether you listen to

0:38.4

cable news channels, it's on MSNBC a lot. Whether you read woke stuff. You'll hear leftists

0:44.8

accuse conservatives or Republicans who use the word woke. They'll say if a Republican says the

0:52.1

word woke, it is a dog whistle that actually means anti-black. So for example, if I look at Disney and

0:59.7

I say, wow, they're really pushing these woke initiatives. They're queer theory stuff. They're

1:25.3

a description of something that they intend negatively, that it's a dog whistle for being

1:30.3

anti-black. And my initial reaction to this is I think the same reaction that we probably all

1:35.1

have. Same reaction you probably have. At first I bulk at this. I say, wait a second.

1:39.0

Criticizing Disney or whoever it might be. That's just the example that I pulled out of the hat.

1:43.7

Criticizing Disney for propagating critical race theory and queer theory on children has nothing

1:49.2

to do with racism at all. It has nothing to do with, well, not racism from me at least. I guess

1:55.7

critical race theory is racialized Marxism. But it has nothing to do with how the conservative

using the term woke treats people of another skin color or whether they are committed to equality.
