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?

@GambleOnFire Interesting, but can people be "woke," i.e, care about the oppression of the non-woke and people who don't care about other people except when they're useful to themselves?

I hear what you're saying, but socially irresponsible and even antisocial liars are being personally attacked and subjected to witch hunts.

I don't think it's just about property, I guess, I'm saying.

@MistyCee I don’t even know what caring about the oppression of the “non-woke” means

@GambleOnFire they tie themselves in knots trying to convince themselves that "woke" is a terrible thing. They clearly aren't very bright people.
