 That might be true. It is also true that some people are severely and unjustly punished for being conservative christians, pro-Trump, or just plain conservative. That's a woke abomination in open source and is exactly what leads to the culture wars and cancellations we have.

'woke' is Marxism rebranded. It uses all the old Marxist AgitProp techniques which some of us are very familiar with.
It's not about manners, it's about political power, and the destruction of societal norms and cultural history. Its about the creation of dissent and hatred.
It is probably funded indirectly by the FSB. As an asymmetric war technique to promote the destruction of freedom and democracy - Russia's greatest threat.
A knew a communist very  well at University. He explained how communists were going to infiltrate every single organisation over his lifetime. It's called the  by a communist (Rudi Dutschke) who is now a member of the EU, 'The long march through the institutions'. The aim was/is to destroy existing society and replace it with a new communist one as the first step towards a socialist Utopia.
I have watched it happen,.
Finally people have woken up.
And elected a complete arsehole whose one saving grace is that he is not 'woke'
