This retarded woke mentality is easily exploited... typically with bad intentions to control idiots, but it could be exploited ironically to expose their clown show.

Just have anyone write a paper or publish an article on how cotton and sugar are racists for obvious reasons. Anyone that wears cotton clothes or consumes sugar, including entire food industries are perpetuating racism started by the sugar cane and cotton plantations. I would love to see how fast this spreads and how the woke companies in those industries will respond.

Umberto Eco warned about doing that sort of thing in his novel Foucault’s Pendulum.

You invent stuff like that at your own peril, because there are lunatics that will act on them and it very likely will backfire on you.

well, if sugar goes away that won't be a bad thing, but I get the point.

You'll never pry my sugar from my cold, pudgy, dead hands.
