Publisher's Summary
In Woke, Titania McGrath demonstrates how everybody can play their part in the pursuit of social justice. As a millennial icon on the forefront of online activism, Titania is uniquely placed to guide her listeners through the often bewildering array of terminology and concepts that constitute 21st-century 'wokeness'. These new ideas often leave the general public bemused, particularly if they don't read the Guardian.
Being woke is actually much easier than people think. As Titania demonstrates, anyone can be an activist. By simply adding a rainbow flag to your Facebook profile, or calling out an elderly person who doesn't understand what 'nonbinary' means, you can change the world for the better. Indeed, social media has now made it possible to show how virtuous you are without having to do anything at all.
Timely and indispensable, Titania's step-by-step guide will help you to become the woke person you need to be in an increasingly progressive world. In a non-patronising manner, Titania will explain why you are wrong about everything and how to become more like her.

this book is meant to be an issue exaggeration of the woke culture but it comes pretty close to the truth!

Lots of laughs
I had heard an interview with the author on the Babylon Bee podcast, and decided to check it out. It did not disappoint!

Hilarious because it's true
A true story disguised as satire. Funniest audio book in a long time. Do not buy if you are easily offended by truth.

Intentions but annoying to listen to.
While I agree with the author (Andrew Doyle) regarding the sheer stupidity of entitled pampered woke warriors being so unhelpful to the growing problems in our society, the book is difficult to listen to perhaps because he is so correct in what we hear today. It isn't really funny, but rather gut wrenching sad and depressing. The poems don't add much to the dialogue and for the most part, were skipped over. For many heterodox authors, there is a lot of description of what is wrong but little on what can be done about it. Perhaps it will feel funning in 10 years if western liberal democracies are still around. Or will there be a cultural WWIII.

Sexist af.
I got about 10 minutes into this and, as a man can confidently say this lady is delusional and has absolutely ZERO respect fort the male species. The material was so disappointing to hear that I will be asking Amazon for a refund.
