according to @Custoslibera’s post
Woke used to mean aware of systemic mechanisms of privilege and oppression in society. I had to stop using it unironically because it turned into a white power derisive buzzword.
To be fair, it still refers to awareness and sympathy for those who suffer from systemic injustice. It’s just wrong according to hate-driven pro-authoritarian movements to sympathize with outsiders.
Current use of woke as a term of contempt is an admission if bigotry.
