I guess Cottle is not a conservative, so just out of three.

Bouie: a perm does different things to black hair and white hair

Cottle: no, a perm is a perm, if it did something different to black hair it should be called a black perm

Bouie: it's the same chemical process, it just-

it’s interesting how little French and Cottle (especially Cottle) seem to have reckoned with what wokeness actually is or was. they, like most commentators, just take for granted that they know it when they see it

i'm still kind of confused about Cottle (and I guess half of America?) thinks "woke" means now

this is a pretty wild exchange with someone seemingly in a moderator position
Bouie: Sure. Before I do, I want to say two things, just to establish them right now and kind of to say where I stand on some of this stuff. The first thing is: "Woke" is a term that comes from African American vernacular. It has its origins in the 1930s, and it has traditionally meant something along the lines of: Be aware of the ways that this society is not built for you. Be aware of the ways that you may face disadvantage and oppression in this society. Again, this is a term that emerged in Black vernacular in the 1930s. And that is, as far as I'm concerned, what the term means. And the usage — Cottle: You are exactly one of about 20 people who think that's what the term means. Bouie: I know. Bouie: I know. Cottle: I always love the historical reference, but that ain't where it's gone. Bouie: I think a lot of Black Americans would agree with me on this point, I'll say that. I think among commentators, sure, not very many people agree with me. Among the people for whom the term - Cottle: Oh, wait, wait, wait. No, no, no. You can't pull that it's a split between commentators. And like, half of America has decided what woke is, and it's not that. Bouie: Among Black Americans, it still means what I just said. So I just want to say Cottle: But beyond the commentators, there's plenty of folks who have decided something very different.

Cottle: Multimedia experience. All right. With that, I think we're going to land this plane. Guys, always fun. We've solved it all. Although I do think we're going to have to, like, do a "Return to Woke: Part 2" something in the future, so just brace for that. Bouie: I would say that we don't have to do that. Cottle: Jamelle is a hard no. OK! Bouie: I would say that there are more important things for us to talk about. Cottle: All right, guys. Have a great week. Thanks. French: Thank you, Michelle. Bouie: Bye.

it is incredibly noticeable here that the pretty much explicit position of cottle is “black people’s opinions don’t count, they need to accept what Real America says”

if Cottle believes a word's definition depends on a majority of people believing it, then that means the racial majority—white people—gets to define our world.

One of the other things going on here is Cottle never grapples with how right wing propaganda shifted public perceptions of “woke” as a floating signifier. Only progressives have agency fallacy.
