From the merriam webster.
: aware of and actively attentive to important societal facts and issues (especially issues of racial and social justice)

I don`t understand why this has become an issue other than all of the ways its been twisted out of context or used to attain other agendas.
Essentially, The way I see it is, to be anti woke is to be a racist, or want to sweep away social justice.
Maybe a simplistic view, be it is what it is. There are always those who will dispute official definition and its those who twist and manipulate.

I truly think "wokness" is an orchestrated movement fuelled by hate and entitlement and fomented by the WEF.

Under President Trump I am hoping that "wokness" dies and is a forgotten word.
