Shit. I don't understand what it means.
Woke - Anything right wing politicians and media has decided to rile their base against. Defining "woke" any more specifically than that today will mean that the definition is wrong tomorrow because what is or is not "woke" changes almost daily.
Woke simply means being conscious of diversity and discrimination issues happening in your society.
someone who is overly worried about issues like discrimination to the point they create their own problems would be one definition.
A bad definition, to be sure.
That definition is really helpful for blocklist curation.
