Find Your Spot On The Woke Spectrum With This 29-Question Personality Quiz

“Woke” originally meant being alert to racial prejudice and discrimination. However, over the past decade, it has evolved into a much broader awareness of social injustices. In pop culture and social media, being “woke” has been associated with even the smallest things – for example, your milk choice.

Well, today we’re aiming to blend the two sides of the “woke” concept to determine where exactly you stand. Ever wondered whether your social radar is taking a nap or going 100 miles an hour? We’ll go through 29 questions, some silly, some more serious, but worry not – no one is here to judge you. Either way, the journey’s half the fun, so let’s wake up and smell the oat milk!

This the stupidest thing I have ever seen on this website. W*F does the type of milk you use etc etc have to do with your awareness of social issues and level of kindness to others??

I wondered this too. I've been drinking soy lately because cow's milk has been upsetting my stomach. That doesn't make me woke, it just makes me someone that appreciates not wanting to chuck every time I eat/drink something that should have milk with it.

I agree. It's like my dairy intolerance is a matter of how "woke" I am.

That's not quite the meaning of the word woke these days. Being vegan is considered woke, vegans drink oat milk, hence a connection between drinking non-cow milk and being woke.

Almond milk use excessive amounts of precious water, cow milk is depriving the calf of proper nutrition and bonding, things like that.

It's a vegan test. I quite enjoy my local coffee shop asking if it's an allergy or a fad when someone asks for coconut milk. They do a lot more wand cleaning if it's an allergy than a vegan.

"Completely unbothered" Well, yeah. Life's stressful enough without having to go ask your neighbor what kind of orientation their flag represents. (And it's a creepy question, we're not friends, I don't care who they're bedding.)

I'm old enough to have seen hundreds of fads come and go. Usually, the sooner they go the better. As for the flag, the one I fly has never been seen before, specifically in order to confuse everybody.

The first time someone on my street put up an LGBT+ flag, the fascists started putting up Spanish flags 🤮. I responded with one of The Ramones. The next day there were flags from Harry Potter schools, other music bands... The fascists started taking down their flags haha
