Nah, there's at least a comparison to be made with a concrete actual thing (the nazi party) -- "woke" in 99.9% of its current usage has no meaning whatsoever beyond a nebulous "this is what they think" type connotation.

A nazi person is a supremacist. A woke person... Is what? There's no consistency about what that is at all. I've seen the word woke applied to vegetarian pizza toppings. It literally has no meaning beyond being a snarl word.

Wokeness is obviously supremacy - moral purity and superiority.

So obvious yet no one else has claimed the same definition.

Reasonable, but I think we could back into a more exact definition by determining what "woke" does not encompass.

For the modern conservative, it appears that sex trafficking and pedophilia are now acceptable and are thus not "woke."

woke = "something that doesn't make money for Trump or his corrupt friends like Musk"
