I thought the hamfisted shit was what most meant when they talk about "woke".

They tell you they only mean the ham-fisted stuff to get "reasonable" people to agree with them, then they move the goalposts and start calling everything else woke, regardless of "ham-fistedness," to get "reasonable" people to expand their definition of "woke" in a pejorative sense and associate a wider range of media as being "woke and therefore bad." Just like they did in past decades with "political correctness."

I think it could just be that the hamfisted stuff is the most egregious and visible example so it's what most people mean and agree on as "woke"
