Wokescreen

When a powerful institution or major company uses woke rhetoric around diversity and inclusion to deflect criticism of their actions or to appear less elitist than they actually are. A portmanteau of "woke" and "smokescreen."

When asked about civilian casualties caused by American drone strikes, the president dropped a wokescreen by reminding everyone that his secretary of defense was the first woman to hold that cabinet position.

Performative wokery

The act of claiming offence on behalf of a third party, without any discrimination for context, intent or reasoning. Used affirmatively by young or naive social warriors, who believe any loud noise they make brings attention that helps their cause. Used disparagingly by experienced social warriors with experience actually inciting change, who know that shouting at strangers mostly undermines the cause's legitimacy and attracts the wrong sort of attention.

Have you seen Jack's twitter where he picks fights with celebrities? I know he's trying to be on our side but his performative wokery is starting to put everything we stand for at risk.

Wokeism

(derogatory) a 21st-century leftwing sociopolitical movement inspired by various aspects of Postmodernism and Critical Race Theory, including but not limited to: victimology, subjectivism, illiberalism, intersectionality, antiracism (reverse racism) reverse sexism, Marxism, cancel culture and safe spaces.

Social justice mobs have a stronghold over major corporations that have submitted to the doctrine of wokeism, as cowardly CEOs parrot race-baiting, Marxist nonsense to avoid getting cancelled.
