Woke is the wide-eyed understanding of how systemic racism and prejudices disenfranchise you and others. Woke is knowing the system has been slanted against those it is meant to serve and working to fix that. Woke is not a bad thing, and these chuds don’t deserve the label.
I was agreeing with you: “woke” does not mean simply that you want to “cancel” people saying things you disagree with, so it doesn’t fit the current case where conservatives want to do that to left-leaning TV celebrities.

Yeah, the term doesn’t really fit very well, it doesn’t mean “censorial” or “authoritarian” although no doubt can be those things.
“Woke” is the left-leaning equivalent to the right-leaning term “redpilled” when you think about it.
What? It fits perfectly. “Woke”, as in eyes open and not asleep at the wheel. Able to see the injustice around you.
Has the term really been so warped by bigots that people don’t know what it originally meant?

Ah, my mistake.
