Woke is a made up term. It has no definition. It has no consistent meaning.
There is a lot of good stuff in your comment, but this opening is extremely problematic. Woke was created in the 1930s with a clear intended definition, which was re-codified in court by DeSantis’ own fascist lawyers.
“The belief there are systemic injustices in America, and the need to address them.”
That is it. Anyone who uses a completely different definition — especially as a pejorative — is simply a racist, bigoted nazi slur. It’s as simple as that.

100% agree with this statement. I do not agree with the current definition from DeSantis’ fascist lawyers and failed to make that clear in my opening.
I SHOULD have described the word as follows instead:
That’s much more clear for what I was going for, so apologies for the confusion!
Wut. You’re supposed to call each other slurs and insult the other’s mother. What is this, amateur hour??
