"Woke" is just code for "anything I don't like, don't understand, or wasn't raised with". Part of the problem is that people don't like their way of life being challenged by the mere existence of cyclists and public transit. The other part is that in many countries the infrastructure (roads, sidewalks, etc) aren't optimized for cycling and that can cause problems when cars, pedestrians, and cyclists are dodging each other.

It's a little sad that we need to actually say this, but:

Don't be an asshole or you will be permanently banned.

Respectful debate is totally OK, criticizing a product is fine, but being verbally abusive will not be tolerated.

Focus on discussing the idea, not attacking the person.
