Texas Rep. Jasmine Crockett exemplifies new confrontational approach as party members reject ‘respectability prison’ in battle against MAGA Republicans.

“Resistance” Democrats are starting to abandon civil politics in favor of a new provocative and combative “dark woke,” a new report says.

The term “dark woke” refers to an online meme that gained popularity in January amid President Donald Trump’s inauguration. Under the “#darkwoke” tag, left-leaning X users share jokes and memes delighting in or wishing for the suffering of Trump supporters.

Though the term is largely an online phenomenon, some members of the Democratic Party are beginning to see some benefits to the “crass” and “rude” attitude.

The Times used Texas Rep. Jasmine Crockett as an example of Democrats going on the offensive against Republicans, such as her attacking Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Ga., for having a “bleached-blonde, bad-built, butch body.”

According to The Times, more Democrats are following Crockett’s lead as party insiders encourage politicians to use “a new form of combative rhetoric aimed at winning back voters who have responded to President Trump’s no-holds-barred version of politics.”

Many Democrats have taken to injecting profanity into their vocabulary in response to MAGA and in an attempt at “authenticity.”

ic politicians have encouraged — or allowed — more swearing. Profanity, [Democratic strategist Tyson] Brody, 38, said, is often seen as a ‘shortcut to authenticity,’ though it can also be overused and backfire,” The Times reported.
