Woke means that a person is aware of the truth which exists behind the world of deceptive appearances - spiritually, and socially.
Tommy: Lisa just learned that most of the crap they fed us about science, medicine and religion is misleading, biased nonsense - science dissects dead husks in the attempt to understand life, modern medicine knows nothing of real healing, and orthodox religion is just a lying social construct....
J.J.: Yea, just got woke.

Shortened past tense of awake. Slang. “I have awoken” in this context has become “I am now woke”.
Used to demonstrate enlightenment on a topic. Mostly for socially charged issues.
Mostly used ironically, to illustrate when someone is doing this pretentiously.
Tom: Where’s Richard? He used to never miss chicken waffle night.
Harry: Didn’t you hear he’s on a cleanse? He’s woke AF when it comes to nutrition.
Barista: what can I get you?
Woke Student: I’d like the single origin to support the farmers, half caff to watch my adrenals, half steamed almond milk for a little fun, half non-steamed oat milk to stay real, with CBD to stay focused, please.
Nearby mother to child: Look Billy, this kid is woke. Hopefully one day you’ll be this elite.

In attempting to be progressive, over inclusive, or politically correct, the violator accidentally, unintentionally, or inadvertently causes "harm" to a "marginalized" group.
Examples include when companies have to pull LGBTQ or black history themed products they thought would be well received but stereotype.
Or green policies like limitations on gas usage in LA which overwhelming affect poorer population than the wealthy.

To be "woke" is to come into the realization of systematic social and political injustice that is still prevalent in today's society. And once this enlightenment is reached, this person should show this through their actions, i.e. protesting, political involvement, community engagement, ect.
Also meaning, that if you see someone being victimized through racism, sexism, or bigotry, you should take a stand IN THAT MOMENT and help to put an end to the confrontation. By asking the aggressor to leave and if that doesn't happen, and the victim is still being abused by this person. Then it's within your rights to protect the victim by putting the racist jerk on his / her ass.
Rodrick - I can't believe the shear number of police shootings of unarmed black men and woman over the past two years!
Dewight - Rodrick, it's unfortunate but, white people have been killing our black brothers and sisters from the moment they first came down from Northern Europe and realized that they were new comer to this world. (circa 740AD) From that point the so-called "white" people of this world (earth) have been faking it until they can make it. But "whites" don't realize that no one believes that B.S. of a show, G.O.T. on HBO and black people never bought that reality show, that they call the British Monarchy. Also Rodrick, if you know any Western Europeans tell them bitches they all still owe us rent money for that land she and her people still living on, and tell them we coming to collect.
And to the people saying that the term "Woke" is not grammatically correct and that we should be using "awake". You should know that regardless of that grammar error, You should know that regardless of that the consciousness is there and we are not going anywhere, If we see racist aggression you will be "CHECKED" and you'll wind up getting exposed for the fascist you are.

How intellectually lazy "red pill swallowers" (ie Alt Right frog-people) justify their buying-in to manifestly whack conspiracy theories. Also used ironically to make a point about a slightly outré position or action, implying grudging approval or amusement. Occasionally used to describe a stance or action that is truly insightful.
Get woke, dude: the 'round earth theory' is a PR sham promoted by Globalist Lizard People; 'Round' equals 'Gobal', yo.
That picture of the $100 avocado toast on Twitter is so woke, man.
Systematically pointing a telescope to the sky and reporting what he saw —despite the Church's teachings— was straight-up woke of Galileo.

A term used by right wingers and leftists to entail they "know" what goes on behind closed government doors. The woke movement itself is founded out of paranoia; mostly conspiracy nuts who have forsaken reality in favor of fighting against nonexistent issues to give them a sense of validity. With the right wing "woke" movement, the paranoia is aimed towards mostly government and scientific establishments (these guys call themselves "anti-establishment"). Among them are also flat earthers, die hard bible thumpers, and gun nuts. With these people literally EVERYTHING is a conspiracy. With the left wing woke movement, everyone is a racist if they don't agree with them. Woke leftists are mostly SJWs and feminazis who virtue signal and rely on tokenism to come across as accepting, and use false statistics to validate their outlandish paranoia. With woke leftists, the pretention is that "the powers that be" are pushing Helter Skelter in an attempt to "keep the races divided", thus giving them reason to whine and moan about racism in Hollywood, and other places where, in fact, none exists. Those who call themselves "woke" in reality are nothing more than pretentious cunts who fight nonexistent battles in their heads to make themselves feel good while being completely ignorant to the fact that paranoia and rebellion are two completely different things, and the two are not interchangeable. Get woke, go broke
Them: Dude, Brie Larson is so woke. I wish I was like her
Me: Oh, you want to be a whiny cunt, ehh?
