'Woke' has been in use for years and is an adjective used to signify that you have 'woken' to social injustice especially racism. It has rapidly accelerated to assume the synonym of political correctness. It is politically incorrect not to be 'woke'.It is for instance 'woke' to wear masks and 'woke' to take the knee . But what being 'woke' really means is being subservient to the self proclaimed group identity 'woke' refers to. Group identity gives a Marxist sense of authority to any member of that group whether they have earned it or not and as such serves as the perfect excuse to avoid responsibility , or worse assume unwarranted power and or to manipulate others.
Greta Thumberg is another example of 'wokeness' Where in all of science and philosophy does it say children are wiser than adults. Their most powerful influence is to inspire adults to be wiser. Indeed the children's crusade of the 1200s ended up in the whole lot being duped by merchants and ending up in the slave colonies of North Africa rather than the Holy Land they aspired to reach.
