What does “being woke” actually mean?

Trump fans, Desantis fans are always knocking people or companies (Disney) for being or catering to a “woke” audience or “woke customers

So can someone please explain to me what the term “woke” means? Give me the Oxford dictionary type definitions of what woke is and explain to me why “being woke” is so bad?

Does that also mean that showing sympathy to someone in distress and offering support is a “woke” thing to do?

Why bother?

The OED is written by educated professionals and any definition they might write is likely to be seen as coming from the vast cabal of globalist intellectuals Trumpists hate.

I see others are trying to answer your question less sarcastically, so I'll shut up, other than to say, at this point, trying to understand the bullshit that comes out of their mouths in a rational way is really frustrating.
