The reporter found out about Jeff Bezos' seemingly small donation for the Australian fires and had a wokespasm before fact checking Bezos' other charitable contributions. Even if the outrage is justified, it is still a wokespasm because no effort was made to consider all the facts before the convulsions of wokeness overtook the reporter.

USAGE NOTE: Although wokeness and wokespasms are often seen as progressive and libtard afflictions, conservatives also exhibit plenty of wokeness and have wokespasms. For instance, it is common to see conservatives provide a whataboutism in response to a wokespasm; and their whataboutism is often a wokespasm in response to a conveniently fabricated outrage du jour, or even a past event suddenly become outrage. Sometimes they are also straw man arguments. On the other hand, wokespasms often quickly turn into what a Trumpster era conservative would consider fake news. Wing nuts on both sides are guilty of wokespasms.
