Woke means paying attention to whats being done in your name, to your life, in your community, to your neighbors, in your country, in our world. It means taking a stand against injustice where ever it presents. And continuing to strive even if its not personal or apparent.

Its voting in the primary and midterms, not just every four years, for a candidate whose record you have researched. And staying on your representatives to be sure the will of the People is first and foremost on their agenda...

Woke originated in the Black Community.

A 1962 New York Times Magazine article titled "If You're Woke You Dig It" by Black novelist William Melvin Kelley, describing the appropriation of African American slang by white beatniks. While I can understand the author's irritation at their appropriation I can also hear echoes of Divide and Conquer.

The powers that be much prefer the status quo. They cannot stand against the People United.
Woke means being mindful of your influence and never never ever giving up. Striving for the best world that can be. It means having principles and ideals, not just opinions. Woke is sometimes seen as passive but #StayingWoke is being knowledgeable and aware of where your power lies. Knowledge is Power and what is Power if it is not used?
My mother told me its about money, not color. The minute you let them fool you, they've won.
My mother was woke.

The belief that everything is entitled to or should be against the main core or a long history to be forgotten by putting ideology politics into entertainment, always in media that has nothing to do with the iedology politics that the group of people want labelled under, and backfires most of the time.
Guy 1: Did you hear about that woke company that abandoned all it's main audiance?
Guy 2: Which one? There is like so many of them putting ideology politics into things they don't need it to be part of.
Guy 1: Oh you right, the entertainment industry is way too woke nowadays.

Who knows what it means. Apparently some people call themselves woke as a sign of intelligence, others say it as an insult towards those they consider smug.
1. I know better than to be vaccinated since I'm woke

2. Go woke; go broke

Woke actually is about the patience of modern, simple, self absorbed people. They have patience with not destroying the world because they know that there are people who are worse off; like suffering people. Woke is when these self absorbed people wake up and lose their patience because they will find out that these suffering people were the reason there was any patience in the first place. This will be the end of the world (it's also because of nerds who are odd, talkative, and condescending with dumb faces, and weird rockstar, girl-like bodies).
Your martyrdom has me woke and needing some privacy and relief.

If you were woke, you'd be burning down the village.
