        Even they don’t know what woke means, it just means they don’t like it.

        If a Republican does not like something, that thing is woke. Therefore it is bad, therefore it is good that they don’t like it.

        Of course the reality is that they’re just bigoted idiots. But that isn’t acceptable to them, so they’ve made up a confusing term that even they don’t understand to insulate themselves.
