To call someone woke in this capacity is to belittle their ridiculous, overly sensitive, very narrow, often hypocritical view on social standards.
When people have nothing to do and no defining trait/endeavour in their life, they search for an identity, and that identity often comes by them picking a cause to champion. The trouble is, they become militant around this one thing while remaining blind to everything else.
For instance, veganism.. A militant vegan will tell you you should be killed for eating meat. Outright.. dead. Slaughtered. Yet you can tell them of the West Papuan genocide and they won’t bat an eye.
Some people militant around perceived racism believe you can’t actually be racist to a white person, no matter what you say to them.
People militant around gender issues will attack anyone who doesn’t think like them with labels that contain ‘phobe’, and in the next breath berate ‘CIS’ (straight) males.
They are referred to as woke, because of how excessively ‘awakened’ they are to their one cause, while being outright ignorant to anything outside of it.
