      "I don't hate women! I just want them to know their place!"

      "I don't hate brown people! I just hate people who break our racist immigration laws!"

      "I don't hate you because you're gay. The abuse I'm giving you is because I care for your immortal soul! It's actually love!"

      It really says something about the people who get up in arms about "wokeness" that they can't conceive of anyone genuinely trying to be considerate of others and acknowledge injustices historical and present.

Reminds me of what Jesus had to say about hypocrites in the marketplace.
