Most people don't know the academic umbrella term, but if you ask for examples of "woke", it's usually pretty obvious they're referring to Critical Social Justice ideology and its associated norms.

People can argue about the boundaries of the term, but pretending nobody knows what is being referred to is not a serious argument.

The claim is that it's too broad to be useful. But as I said earlier, this is all besides the point.

It's clearly an effective label, otherwise it wouldn't be so widely used.

The real objection is that supporters of the ideology dislike the characterization embedded in the term.

Effective as a social signal, absolutely. Not for anything substantive.

Again, besides the point.
