Woke or not?

So, I’m curious if you had a long time friend who was suddenly diagnosed with cancer (treatable but still shocking to find out that your friend had cancer) would it be considered “woke” to show compassion and empathy for them and their cancer recovery journey?

If you consider it to be “woke” .. please explain why you believe that being a heartless bastard is better than showing empathy.

I think most people here are aware of how much I truly hate the GOP. However, if someone receives a Cancer diagnosis that is an acquaintance of mine I am putting politics aside and doing whatever I can for them, even if they identify as a conservative.. I really don’t see “Woke” in it’s current usage as a legitimate word or description , so I don’t have a clear answer for your question.
