Addendum: the #ReasoningFallacyConfirmationBiasIToldYouSo #BehaviourSmugness tenor of this tweet strongly suggests a #OtheringCaricatureBrexitBrexiteer perspective. Put bluntly, who benefits from wishing ill of the EU? Such characterisation also evokes a metaphorical othering exemplified by the #PhenomnBrexit #CatchcryLoveEuropeButNotEU, where #ToponymEuropeUK was (erroneously) understood to be separate from #ToponymEurope, creating a distinction (evoking #MetaphorSpatialTerritorialGeography symbolism) where #ToponymEuropeUKBritishIsles and #ToponymEuropeContinental are framed as being wholly distinct (and so incurring no impediment through their divorce).
This reminds me of #IRLScholarGeorgeLakoff's #TheoryLinguisticsConceptualMetaphorCMT analysis as per: "Consider Brexit, which used the metaphor of 'entering' and 'leaving' the EU. There is a universal metaphor that states are locations in space: you can enter a state, be deep in some state, and come out that state. If you enter a café and then leave the café, you will be in the same location as before you entered. But that need not be true of states of being. But that was the metaphor used with Brexit; Britons believed that after leaving the EU, things would be as before when the entered the EU. They were wrong. Things changed radically while they were in the EU" (23 July 2016). http://george-lakoff.com/2016/07/23/understanding-trump-2/ #PoliticsNationalismRomantic

#MetaphorVersusHardSoft i.e. "la droite" [the right] are cast as strong where as #TauntWoke are cast as childish / ineffectual / #PhenomnAgencyHumanPowerlessness - and because of the oppositional framing of the metaphor - they are also presumably, also not #CharacterisationRightWing i.e. they are presumably its opposite - #TauntLeftThe - that is, #MetaphorVersusRightWingLeftWing

Supplementary: Analysing this meme using Conceptual Metaphor Theory http://folksonomy.co/?keyword=53608 would position the absurdity (and incongruous nature) of a child's toy car being on the motorway as a 'source domain' and an assumed relationship between supposed "la droite" + "le wokisme" groups as the target domain. In mapping the latter (target) onto the former (source) the resulting concept is that 'woke' are an absurd incongruity. I can only assume that such characterisations provide comfort for those characterised in terms of #TheorySociologySocialInertia

"Moral Bounds: Here action is seen as motion, and moral action is seen as motion within prescribed bounds or on a prescribed path. Immoral people are those who transgress the bounds or deviate from the path. The logic of this metaphor is that transgressors and deviants are dangerous to society not only because they can lead others astray, but because they create new paths to traverse, thus blurring the clear, prescribed, socially accepted boundaries between right and wrong." http://www.wwcd.org/issues/Lakoff.html #OtheringOutGroupTransgressiveDegenerate

Supplementary: #MagazineUKAreoGabrielAndrade "It is unfortunate that trigger has become a dominant metaphor for describing times when a strong emotional reaction is evoked. A trigger is mechanical, not organic. It cannot be bargained with, related to or altered. A trigger is pulled by an external force, and its activation is inexorably followed by a cascade of events beyond our control. The term gives a sense of inevitability to whatever happens next and implies that we are powerless to do anything once these events have been set in motion.
The lack of agency evoked by the image is further heightened when we use a passive construction. When we say I'm triggered, we place ourselves in the role of a helpless bystander, acted upon by forces that we cannot influence. Our only defense is to avoid becoming triggered in the first place. Hence, trigger warnings. Implicit in the metaphor of trigger is the false idea that painful emotions are dangerous and need to be avoided." https://areomagazine.com/2019/02/19/triggered-a-defeatist-metaphor/

---

Addendum: The pejorative use of the 'triggered' metaphor seeks to cast subjects of such characterisations negatively. When considered in terms of #TheoryLinguisticsConceptualMetaphorCMT, the meanings, which are associated with triggered represent the 'source domain', which in using the pejorative characterisation, are (intentionally) applied to the subject ('target domain') who in doing so, become imbued with the these ideas. To paraphrase the #MagazineUKAreoGabrielAndrade piece above, using the characterisation pejoratively is about casting the subject as a "helpless bystander, acted upon by forces that we cannot influence", which is effectively a synonym for #CharacterisationWeakness_ evoking the #MetaphorVersusWeaknessStrength (which positions everything that is good as #CharacterisationStrength against everything, which is weak/bad).

Addendum: Additionally, much of the pro-Brexit campaigning employed a #MetaphorClosedSystem, where mythology around the #ToponymEuropeUK being an island (and therefore separate and discrete) was leveraged. The "£350 million per week" savings claim is a ket example of this:
