Democrats always complain when conservatives co-opt their latest synonym for Marxism.

There is a difference between being woke, and being awake.
Woke is SJW, DIE, racists leftist crap.
Awake is knowing this crap goes on; and the government, media, corporations are forcing this crap on us all.

The word has gone from its original usage of "leftist and angry" to meaning "leftist and angry" but with the wong people using it critically. Therefore the word must be changed to a new, secret word.

See also the new term every decade for those with lot of melanin in their skin.

Exactly. The ENTIRE THING needs to be “revoked”.

Let’s go all the way back to 30 years past when “political correctness” started. All they did was find a new, short and stupid word to replace the phrase. It’s not new.

“Jones explained the origins of the word go back 100 years.
“We can see its roots as far back as 1923 and the Black community,”

So is it racist to claim something or someone is woke? It must really be bad to refer to a practitioner as a woketard.

Indeed, but the joke's on us. The "expert" (expert grifter maybe) quoted in the story is this lady, right here.

She has suffered terrible persecution at the hands of the non-woke, as evidenced of her early life in that racist nation, Holland:

Erin Jones was born in the United States but raised in the Netherlands, where her parents worked as teachers at the American School of The Hague.

She was so broke that she attended the exclusive, private, (not terribly selective) but very expensive Bryn Mawr:

Erin speaks four languages and returned to the United States in 1989 to attend Bryn Mawr College, where she earned a BA in Comparative Literature with a focus on literatures of the African Diaspora. Erin later earned her teaching certificate at Pacific Lutheran University with endorsements in English, French and ELL.

But if anyone's wondering why public schools are such a dumpster fire, wonder no more. This paragon is employed as the DIE director at a public school district in Seattle, Washington.

She was named Most Innovative Foreign Language Teacher in 2007 and in 2008 she was selected as the Washington State Milken Educator of the Year. Erin served three years as Assistant State Superintendent for Student Achievement in Washington State, where she was responsible for working with educators and policy makers to create policies and practices that would better serve students of color and students otherwise disenfranchised. Based on a desire to be closer to students and teachers, Erin recently took a position as the Director of Equity and Achievement for the Federal Way School District, a large, very diverse district south of Seattle.

The original name for Race and Equity Experts was “Carpetbagger”. Then it became “Community Organizer”. Same song and dance.

I can’t imagine how empty and lifeless a life as a “race and equity expert” must be.
