Woke is an adjective derived from African-American Vernacular meaning "alert to racial prejudice and discrimination". Woke has been used this way for decades and anyone using it differently is using it incorrectly.
Language evolves. Just ask anyone with a they/them pronoun.
Woke didn't evolve, it was highjacked and purposely used incorrectly to mock.
Stay woke dude!
