What exactly is woke? A resource.

One of the most challenging obstacles in proving one's masculinity, is to be wary of things that are woke. Over the last decade the definition has distorted into something that becomes increasingly difficult to define. Is woke equal rights? Is woke in opposition to conservative manly values? Is woke just based on vibes? 

In order to simplify this complicated and ever-evolving issue, rather than giving a clear definition of woke, which will ultimately become outdated by next week, it is better to provide examples.
