wokeacracy
wokeacracy — Credit for the coinage of the word is given to Governor Ron DeSantis who has proclaimed his state Florida to be where “Woke” goes to die.
Used positively “wokeacracy “ would be: a society of awakened individuals who organized and used the political system in a fair way to gain power.
Used negatively the word is currently used as both a dog whistle and a battle cry calling for the disenfranchisement of groups seen as a threat to the current hegemony.
Originally, “Stay Woke” was a hook in a the Childish Gambino song Redbone — a song written as a satire on the Trump presidency veiled by lyrics with sexual overtones.
Like most acerbic satire, the ideas the phrase “stay woke” pointed to were so powerful that the phrase took on a life of its own. The popular song brought the concept to the surface of popular cultural awareness.
This isn’t the first time this concept has stimulated the imaginations of humankind.
When the Buddha was asked what class of being he was: god, gandharva, celestial dancer or demon he answered that he was none of these.
“I am awake”
Aham jāgṛtaḥ asmi (in Sanskrit)
This was his description of himself.
This of course, can’t be taught in schools because if it were taught; then, it could posssibly lead to Wokeacracy!!!
And we wouldn’t want that.
Would we?

We have to remove critical race theory from our schools; keep women barefoot and pregnant; disenfranchise non-White voters; discourage diversity and inclusion programs; and remove affirmative action programs otherwise America will become a wokeacracy!!!!!!!!!

dead drop
A dead drop is a location used to secretly pass items between two people, without requiring them to meet.
Spies have been known to use dead drops, using various techniques to hide the items and to signal that the drop has been made. Drug dealers use this as well.
A common place is to duct tape the item to the underside of a toilet cover in a public restroom.
A signal is sometimes used as well to indicate there is something to pickup, like a pile of stones in a certain formation. After checking the drop the signal is removed.

No Surprises Wedding
