Woke
Woke is a recently popular word, politically correctly interpreted as meaning leftist politically "awake" or "aware".
Leftist Wikipedia claims that the word is of Black origin, therefore implied to be more politically correct, despite the word long being a simple past tense of "wake", derived from a Germanic word.
The "Great Awokening" is a less politically correct term for the recent leftist radicalization, derived from the term the Great Awakening, thus implying similarity to a religious movement.
