Addendum: references to the 'mind' as per references such as 'openminded' here, seem to underline the significance of #TheoryDeterminismBiologicalPhysiological. Given this, mention of #MetaphorDiseaseMindVirus seems to takes on greater significance (as such a 'virus' would limit the ability to become 'free').
"HAVE YOU GOT YOUR TICKETS READY FOR THE ELECTION ?
The Free Negro North.-In many parts of the North, the Wide Awakes are composed mainly of Negros. Lincoln's strength is in no inconsiderabls degree, swelled by buck Negroes ; and these are the people that Yankee emissaries ask the South to submit to !--But it is not possible that Southern white men can be guilty of such baseness--Southern women will not permit it !
The day of amalgamation has not come, in the South. Massachusetts may mulattoize herself, and doubtless will--but when she seeks, with the other Northern States, to initiate the doctrine in the South, by imposing on us a free negro Vice President, the day will have come for dissolution. The South must belong to the White Race !" #SlurWhiteSupremacy

"Woke in its initial inception meant political consciousness for Black people about the histories of anti-Blackness in this [USA] country and globally rather than this kind of more generalised political consciousness that it came to take up. One thing that I think is a very common misunderstanding about woke is the idea that it was derived from this phrase 'stay woke'. Woke itself is a standalone word. It's a word that conforms to the syntactic and phonological, which is to say that the sound system and grammatical principles, of African American English which has its origins in the South. 'Awake' is synonymous with 'woke' right, so one might say, 'I was woke about, let's say 7am'. The idea of 'wakefulness' as a concept referring to political consciousness stretches as far back as 1923, and then we see it going all the way up through the 1980s. Marcus Garvey in 'The Philosophy and Opinions of Marcus Garvey' in the frame of what we might think of as black nationalist tradition where he says, 'wake up Ethiopia, wake up Africa, let us work towards the one end of a glorious and redeemed and mighty nation', he's talking about political consciousness in the same way as Laurence Fishburne's character at the end of 'School Daze' in the 1980s film. In 1962, a New York Times article by a guy named [William] Melvin Kelley 'If You're Woke You Dig It' writing about cultural appropriation and linguistic appropriation of Black language and culture by white people, specifically. As early as the 1990s or the late 1980s, you see it more attached to the idea of 'political correctness'. This is the point of which white people I would suggest, begin using it reflexively. And so it doesn't now just have the meaning of thinking about anti-Blackness from the perspective of someone who experiences it. More now it refers to this more general sense of awareness, as a marker of general political consciousness attention to such issues as those environmental, feminists, regarding ability and so on. Childish Gambino's song 'Redbone', canonised the phrase 'stay woke' for a popular audience. While Childish Gambino might understand that 'wokeness', at least in its original inception, has a lot to do with our awareness of anti-Black oppression. Listeners to the song from a variety of demographics all over the world aren't abreast of that history and now are using it, the phrase, in a way that destroys its meaning. But it has also been taken up more recently by conservatives. And it became used in a negative or pejorative fashion, right or at least one that is mocking or sarcastic. In fact, it's a well-known and popular tactic of conservatives to pick up and shift the meanings of individual terms, to then weaponize them. Mark Milley and Matt Gaetz arguing about what's woke and what isn't, whether it's good or whether it's bad, where that has nothing to do with the case of the Scottsboro Boys or Emmett Till or Trayvon Martin or Sandra Bland or Rodney King or Ahmaud Arbery or Breonna Taylor or George Floyd. I'm not suggesting that it's necessarily a conscious process, but it's the result of the kind of consumption of Black culture, which has always had a lot of capital purchase in the United States and pop culture globally."

And #WebsiteVoxAjaRomano: "Before 2014, the call to 'stay woke' was, for many people, unheard of. The idea behind it was common within Black communities at that point -- the notion that staying 'woke' and alert to the deceptions of other people was a basic survival tactic. But in 2014, following the police killing of Michael Brown in Ferguson, Missouri, 'stay woke' suddenly became the cautionary watchword of Black Lives Matter activists on the streets, used in a chilling and specific context : keeping watch for police brutality and unjust police tactics."

Supplementary: #AdvocacyUKInstituteForStrategicDialogueISD "Thus, a better estimate of the prevalence of conspiracy belief among Americans can be derived by looking at the percentage of respondents who both say they had heard the claim before taking the survey and say that they believe it is true. With this calculation, we estimate that about one-in-five Americans believe that the Democratic primary was rigged against Bernie Sanders and about one-in-ten Americans believe conspiracies regarding a link between vaccines and autism, a global network that tortures and abuses children (a QAnon conspiracy), that Covid-19 vaccines will have tracking chips activated by 5G networks, and that the coronavirus is a hoax. About one-in-twenty say they have both heard of and believe the QAnon claims that Trump is preparing mass arrests of politicians and celebrities, that celebrities harvest andrenochrome from children's bodies, and that Mueller was actually investigating a child sex-trafficking network." https://www.isdglobal.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/qanon-and-conspiracy-beliefs.pdf #BeliefConspiracy
