“If being woke means being worried about economic inequality, and racism, and discrimination against gay people, then I’m in. If it means being authoritarians, and policing language, and shutting up other people, then f*k that.”

This is a typically shallow take from Gervais

How is it shallow? Seems to echo the sentiments of many critisims with both woke and anti woke blather I hear. Treating other nice is not a political thing, its a human one.

I typically find Gervais grating and full of crap, but I find little to argue with here.
