    I‘m neurodivergent. For me that comes with knowing stuff about it and being open about differences. I dont state my pronouns but I‘m 100% comfortable around people who do.

    If that is ultra woke to you, then we dont match.

    I’m caring, compassionate, empathetic and considerate. If that’s ultra woke, then yeah, it’s on purpose.

    At the first sign that I’m interacting with someone who avoids people they consider woke, I signal my wokeness in any honest way I can.

    I have a lot of room for different people in my social circle, but if my willingness to state my pronouns without blinking bothers someone, they’re too fragile for me to waste time around.

    I believe that by US standards I’m a so called “classical liberal” but by Lemmy standards I’m probably somewhere in the centre right.

    And no I’m not that on purpose just like the “ultra-wokes” aren’t either. We don’t choose our beliefs. They are what they are. We hold the beliefs we think are correct. Now if someone makes an incredibly good argument that shakes your world view, you don’t choose to change your mind either - you helplessly do so.
