You broadened the term so much you turned it into a huge amorphous blanket that covers generations of invectives. I’ll stick with Merriam-Webster, thanks https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/woke
Retired IT guy, all-around nuisance

Who cares about downvotes? That’s a Reddit thing. I’m an old white guy but I vote Democrat all the way down ticket every time. I was a big Bernie Sanders supporter. What I do not like is virtue signaling and forcing diversity into various media when it’s not necessary. Call that anti-woke if you want.
I’m aware of that, I was referring to how the extreme left tends to overcompensate for social injustices.
Granted, the actual definition of “woke” is a far cry from what the media, especially you tubers and the Twitter mob make it out to be. People on both sides but especially the right call it the “woke virus”, when wokeism is basically just being aware of the societal pressures put on people of different races, genders etc.
I’m 64 and still pretty far left, except I don’t get into the whole “woke” thing. The extreme left is a bit wacko but not as wacko as the extreme right.
The only reason I remember that I’m 64 is that I will be 65 on my next birthday. That’s kind of a milestone for a number of reasons and it’s easy to remember. The same was true when I was about to turn 50. Other than that, anything after 30 is kind of blurry
