In a quoted post on X, the microblogging platform formerly known as Twitter, Ice T said, “What the F is Woke? lol Like I give a F***.”

Another fan tried to explain what woke meant, saying it was “tearing down my John Wayne statues and forcing me to erect a Spider-Man fountain that sprays gay beer on my lawn that turns it into astroturf.”

The actor quoted the message and added, “That sounds Dope… F John Wayne.”

In another post on X, Ice T clarified that he stays “outta political sh**” and added, “Like I said before… The Blue Vs The Red… It’s GangBangin to me.”

Ice T has played detective Odafin Tutuola in the Dick Wolf-created police drama since 2000 (Season 2). The actor is set to return to the franchise for Season 26 alongside Mariska Hargitay, Peter Scanavino, and Octavio Pisano. New cast additions for the new season include Juliana Aidén Martínez as a new detective, and Kevin Kane has been upped to a series regular as detective Terry Bruno.

Dick Wolf is creator and executive producer of Law & Order: SVU. David Graziano, Julie Martin, Mariska Hargitay, Norberto Barba, Kenneth Brown and Peter Jankowski executive produce. Universal Television, a division of Universal Studio Group, and Wolf Entertainment produce the series.
