As predicted.

Because according to the definition by Fox News, everything is woke.
Even calling something woke, is woke.
-
Because "woke" has no hard definition and is just used as a derogatory term for anyone who doesn't agree with them. For them being "woke" is the worst thing someone can be. If that happens to be another right-winger then all well.
On top of that Trump has been courting every type of right-winger that even vaguely has a pulse to bolster his support. Essentially diluting whatever meaning "woke" had even further.

Imagine thinking that having your eyes open and your brain engaged is automatically bad.

I dunno, I lived through the 80's and 90's where something like 90% of people identified as Christian.
I also lived through the Bush II years where 70% of the country thought that Saddam Hussein was directly involved in the attacks and wanted to invade Iraq two years after 9/11
Thinking having your eyes open and your brain engaged is a bad thing is basically Americas modus operandi.

The term has yet to develop a consensus definition. The psychologist Jordan Peterson, who was one of the main figures popularizing the term, told Joe Rogan in April that the “woke right” was really a matter of “psychopaths” on social media who care mostly about being inflammatory and publicly antisemitic and only pretend to care about the conservative movement. Peterson and those like him see this phenomenon as the bile of the internet, rather than a matter for real political analysis.
We're all looking for the guy who did this!

Can we all abuse the word woke until it's like a common replacement for shit?
Like;
- This coffee is fucking woke
- I dumped a massive woke today
- This president is a fucking woke hitler
- Elon is as woke as it gets
-
Sorry bro I don't drink woke coffee, I know how to brew the good woke

The right has routed the left; its individual factions do not, at this moment, need their allies as they once did. The time is right instead for them to advocate for their own political projects.
The "left" has also routed the left. The two sides should team up to stamp out leftists altogether! Oh wait ..

Woke derives from the Middle English “woak”, meaning a particularly stout and deep-rooted tree.
