Woke means you hate all white people and think they're all from England and had slaves.
It means you're too stupid to realize people like me, have ancestors that were under foreign occupation from 1500-1913 and had absolutely nothing to do with colonization and didn't benefit from oppressing non-Europeans in any way sort or form but think we deserve punishment.
You aren't a decent human being if you're woke.
I'm a Yugoslav ethnically. Yugo means south, slav being the root word for the word slave because we were taken as slaves by the Arabs and Ottoman Turks.
We also suffered a similar fate that natives in Canada did, the Ottomans took the first born son of every Christian family and sent them to be part of the Ottoman army and forcefully converted us to islam.
Took out daughters as sex slaves in harems.
Taxed us stealing our labour and wealth for 500+ years.

Then we were booted out of Greece to make room for Turkish-Greeks and had our land stolen in the 1940s, happened to my Grandparents.

We were under the same empire that the Palestinians were under, and what happened to them happened to us, but woke people want me to suffer because I have white skin.
Woke people are evil scum. They aren't decent people in any shape or form, they are basically nazis spreading lies about me just like the Germans did about the Jews.
I know this because woke people like to throw slavery and other things in my face just because I am European without realizing the word SLAVE is derived from my ethnicity.
Hitler hated us just as much as he hated the Jews and we were part of the holocaust, but woke people don't care,

I'm white, I'm European, I must be a colonizer worthy of punishment for the actions of some people in England who speak a different language, use a different alphabet, practice a different religion and lived 2000 km away.
That's what woke people are. They're fucked in the head.
My country is currently teaching our children to hate me based on my skin colour and they think I deserve it. Again, just like the Nazis did to the Jews.

I assume you are Indian, imagine you were randomly getting blamed for shit Pakistani people did 300 years ago and your country was teaching kids that you are a bastard for what Afghani people did just cause you have similar skin colour.
That's wokeness. It's a disease.
None of my ancestors subjugated other people groups to any form of discrimination and didn't colonize anywhere else. But woke people think they did. I've interacted with enough of them that hate me just for being European, most of them are British themselves which is insane.
It is 100% the same thing that the Nazis did to the Jews and the Slavs, spread lies and propaganda about them. Woke people would have fit in Nazi Germany.
I've yet to meet a woke person who will acknowledge Muslim occupation and oppression against south eastern Europeans.
My last name isn't a Persian word because I'm Persian. It was assigned to my family by foreign occupiers.
We don't eat middle eastern influenced food because we are middle eastern, it is a result of foreign occupation and subjugation.
Our music isn't middle eastern influenced because we are middle eastern, it is a result of foreign occupation and subjugation.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cQTZQxmZF20 <-- We don't make this randomly. It's a direct result of our history.
Macedonian wedding song played at every wedding is called Mashallah. Christian people there aren't singing for random, it's a result of colonization by the middle east

Woke people refuse to acknowledge any of this.
I'm white, I'm from London, England to them, I must be punished and shamed for my ancestry to all woke people.
Please enlighten me. Can you tell me how I am colonizing. I legitimately do not understand this topic and no one has even tried to explain it. I just get called a colonizer and a bunch of other names.
I’d just like to have a discussion and learn about this,”.
If you want to read something on the colonization of the US I would recommend a people's history of the united states by Howard Zinn, there are free pdfs online.
Even though you are not culprit of colonial violence yourself, the fact is that you are still benefiting from those violence, you live in a house built on stolen land, your job, whatever it is, exist because the business you work can extract resources from stolen land (or buy them from an other company who did) and sell it to other peoples who live on stolen land, etc...
The point is not that you should feel guilty about what your ancestors did (you are right that this would be unfair to you), but that you should acknowledge the fact that whether you want it or not you do live in a privileged position that exist because those colonial violence were inflicted on the natives.
It would go a long way for you to try to find what actual natives have to say about it.

Imagine thinking lemmygrad won't roast someone for getting personally upset at being called a colonizer.
