    What it seems like the “joke” is at:

    If you are assertive but a man, wokes will call you aggressive. If you are assertive but a woman, wokes will applaud you.

    Or so I understand the underlying logic, can be wrong ofc.

        It’s actually a comic strip by Judy Horacek from 1999 about how assertiveness in women is viewed as aggressive and discouraged, while it is encouraged in men

      I’m pretty sure the joke is the exact opposite, that the same behavior that’s treated as assertive if a man does it is treated as aggressive coming from a woman.
