Mini-Post: What Do You Think?

I believe on inclusion. Period.

What Trump is doing now with his anti-Woke campaign is discrimination! It is exclusion rather than inclusion. In the 3PM afternoon post I wrote about have Trump & Company is bring back discrimination in the military.

Our language is also bring back discrimination... Woke is the new word meaning "to discriminate." and other words are creeping into the language.

I use "folk" as it was original meant as an inclusive word... But now there is a new word that is being used "folx" according to Merriam-Webster dictionary,
folx
plural noun
ˈfōks 
: folks —used especially to explicitly signal the inclusion of groups commonly marginalized

Call me old fashion but to me it seem Folk is inclusive and Folx is exclusive.
