It seems like everyone is mentioning it as if I'm supposed to know what they're talking about.

Like all "definitions" of woke, it depends on who you're talking to, the most common but in no way the plurality of the meanings, it's become a stand-in for centrist cooption or 'radlib', Pelosi in the kente cloth being the most common example given

But thanks to AOC's garbage quip on ABC a few days ago it's now starting to morph into the general anti-woke definition that chuds and centrists have been using for years

Personally I'd like it to mean 'Progressive Except for Palestine', but that's cause I remember during 2019 the only time I ever got downvoted into the hundreds back on the old sub was when I defended a Palestinian women from accusations of racism because she told an Israeli gooner to fuck off on a dating app

That to me exemplifies everything wrong with "Woke 1.0"
