    Woke playing cards

    Gender-neutral playing cards replace king, queen and jack with gold, silver and bronze | Daily Mail Online

    Gender-neutral playing cards replace king, queen and jack with gold, silver and bronze (so is it an ace idea?)

    • Indy Mellik, 23, from the Netherlands, produced a gender-neutral pack of cards
    • The forensic psychology graduate wants to challenge gender inequality
    • She has already shipped 1,500 packs as far as Belgium, France and America

    Oh look I have the 'they of silver'
    Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much.

        No. It would be the silver/bronze/gold of hearts/spade/clubs/diamond.

        With Russian playing cards, the ace is the Tsar. Durak.
        Down with racism. Long live miscegenation!

              Sarcasm? or do you really struggle that much with 4 letter words.

                Woke - Wikipedia

                it refers to a perceived awareness of issues that concern social justice and racial justice
                So, ironically, the Wail are playing to their white readership about the 'social injustice' that they are missing out on something.

                Nothing woke about those cards. They are just a marketing attempt to sell more products. Nothing more, nothing less.

                  No, not sarcasm.

                  Now go away and understand what woke means. Don't assume you know what it means because there is a link to the Wail and the word woke was used.
