I've been thinking about this for a while.
We often call liberals Woke. At one point they tried to pin the term on us, claiming that we use that term internally for people who are redpilled. But luckily it has become a pejorative for them.
I was trying to think of a pejorative they could use against us that would backfire. Sometimes the solution just falls out of your brain intuitively. The answer is Aware.
Advantages: If someone hears a right wing person called aware in a negative sense there next thought is going to be "aware of what? should I be aware?"
Aware can have two meanings. Aware can mean being aware of something specific, but like awake or woke it can also be a state. The difference is that when you are aware you are assessing threats, which is something we want more people to do, and want to emphasize to the left that we are better at that than them, and our abilities should be recognized as useful.
The goal then would be to spread its use as a description for the right both within the right and the left. Perhaps to make it somewhat attractive to the left we can use scare quotes. "Aware".
I don't really see it backfiring the way the left's introduction of the term woke did for them. I think it would be pretty easy for us to adopt. None of us mind being called aware. The goal is then to use it more often and recognize that its use can have some value.
So the goal is make the world see aware as the right version of woke.
