performative wokeness 

Learned a new phrase: "Performative Wokeness."

People who more concerned with self-promotion, social media "likes", or selling books & lectures; than they are about Actual Deliverables.

People thought Tina cared about labor issues, considering how much she Tweeted about it, but it was all performative wokeness - she had no problems crossing picket-lines if the business offered a sale.

Wokeness 

The ability of someone to become outraged at imagined enemies and create ways to be the victim, even though you're insanely privileged. Created by right wing loons, insurrectionist sympathizers, conspiracy folk, and their ilk to create a boogie man.

Icky Vicky the school board lady invented an enemy in wokeness, but all she did was prove she and her minions are bigoted morons.

Terminal Wokeness 

Terminal Wokeness is the state of a company franchise or product that becomes so Woke that it has lost and or abandoned what fans and customers formerly found appealing about it.
Terminal Wokeness exists in an era where more and more Western companies became Woke and this causes those that are or were so invested in the company product or franchise to vote with their money or vote with their feet and leave. This led to observable losses in the company or mass abandonment or rejection of the company product or franchise by current and or former fans and customers.
Sometimes known as Get Woke Go Broke.

Terminal Wokeness describes to the fan and customer that the company franchise or product would rather push "approved" politics ideology and world view such as Social Justice Feminism and Political Left, over making a good product tv show and movie telling a story or improve upon what they have already built.

Terminal Wokeness: When something becomes so Woke that it can no longer return to what it once was.

Wokeness 

Sanctimonious elements of social reformism that seek to, or perpetuate the effects of, influencing society toward a state of perpetual offense to perceived threats or injustices (e.g., racism, sexism, sexuality bigotry) through the radicalization or subversion of universally-understood cultural or social norms.

Wokeness (as a term and mantra) originated within Negro communities as a reference to self-consciousness, spiritual acuity, keen awareness to the effects of paradigm shifts, and general preparedness and knowledgeability regarding unspoken, unseen influences and esoteric science concepts in addition to hidden history.

However, despite its non-socially-charged origins, the term itself, later reprised by Black social activists and appropriated by corporate America and entertainment media, gradually morphed alongside conflated social phenomena to involve extrinsic issues such as feminism, critical theory, homosexuality, climate activism (especially climate change alarmism), economic marginalization, intersectionality, and transgenderism.

Politically, wokeness underpins both progressive and liberal dogma and is - as defined by many of its critics - characterized by cult-like social adherence to Leftist social orthodoxy, which happens to be rooted in various Liberal socioeconomic models (i.e., "oppressor-oppressed"-type mores), albeit wokeness is not restricted by political inclination and is fundamentally ideological in nature.

Wokeness in sentences:

(Traditional, original usage): "The most powerful thing a brotha and sister can do is know thyself. Stay woke, y'all!"

(Modern usage): "Ever noticed how a lot of Hollywood series lately just feel empty or preachy? What's with all the sanctimonious virtue signaling and zero storytelling?" "To put it in a few words, they went woke. It's tearing not only entertainment, but western civilization apart and people hate or conflict with each other more than ever over issues we overcame and evolved past long ago that woke individuals and the corporations they influence obsess with."

"The closest proximation for wokeness as colloquy in the English language is problematization, a core function of wokeness."
