Focusing on criticising people's actions and being lenient and not judging the person's character is literally centuries old, I don't think you can say it's because of woke.

It's arguably one of the central principles of Christianity. Let he who is without sin cast the first stone and so on.

Yeah, that's exactly what I was thinking of, just didn't want to start a flame war.

The woke movement in many ways has taken core Christian principles, cut out the supernatural elements, and formed a new quasi religious movement. It has its dogmas and priests, it focuses on the poor & disadvantaged, etc. That's not a criticism of woke, I see it more as a response of the failures of Christianity in practice to live or embrace those values.

Yes, sounds right. Because you can't hit a killer with stone if you envy your rich neighbor.
