‘Get woke’ sounds like an obnoxious, non-grammatical ebonics term to me. End of my consideration of it.
I think rather in demand and supply terms, that the fundamental assumption of demand and supply theory is that it is a closed system, meaning that the pool of consumers is (more or less) the pool of workers. If that is broken, then anything derived from the theory of demand and supply is broken.
I might be missing something (what?).

Which is why corporations, looking to maximize shareholder value, promote mass immigration. A larger population means higher demand for their goods or services as well as higher supply of labor, which reduces costs.
