Woke is chaos and confusion and relies on feelings and emotions rather than critical thinking and logic, facts and actual science. It seeks to change the meaning of words and definitions to create an alternate reality to coddle the mental illness of those who have been gaslighted by people in powerful positions doing experiments on humans via various psychological instruments.
It creates and continues victim mentality while maintaining an enslaved mentally in a population of susceptible people.
Woke is anti-human. Anti-intelligence. Anti-progress. It is the very destruction of society as we have known it in our lifetime. And it is a tool of the the very people who created and continue projects like MKULTRA. Amazing how this all escalated and exploded during the 2020 scamdemic lockdown. It was a slow frog in the pot boil for sure. But the scamdemic ushered it in, in a magnificent fashion.
Elon is right on so many things, but he still has nasty, evil, little gaslighting whispers in his ears, by the very woke people he feels he is fighting against. Such as Linda Yaccarino.

Modern wokism in America,
“Wokeism” is a term derived from the African American Vernacular English (AAVE) expression “stay woke,” which means to remain aware and vigilant of social and political issues. It has since evolved to describe a broader social and political movement advocating for social justice, equality, and the dismantling of systemic discrimination.
Hum, is neither what you posted and neither what is going in America today.
It has been hijacked by Marxism and communist ideas.

Wokism is getting past a "programmed society that's deemed what is acceptable and what isn't" mostly by puritan standards.
I’m executing a blueprint to push back illiberalism and I'd like you to be directly involved. The blueprint has a two-fold aim: first, to restore free speech and open inquiry as non-partisan values; and second, to reveal the implications of far-left ideological takeover.

The way I see it is these companies are willing to lose billions to push an agenda.

Nope, that is not true, democrats are fueling the wokeism for their own political agenda Annee, you know that is truth, they are deceivers and liars.
They have never, ever care inequality, equality, equity or else, they keep inventing meaning to words, they are all about themselves and their agenda.
"Wokeness refers to, being alert to invisible injustices perpetrated against disempowered classes of people. Generally defined on genetically inherited characteristics like race, gender, and sexual orientation. Basically it borrows from the tropes of Marxism. Which was this oppressor/oppressed narrative. But wokeism was not just Marxism, it was the merger of Marxism with identity politics. The idea that, you are nothing more and nothing less than the genetic stock that you inherit on the day you're born. So that's what you sort of refer to as the trend of modern wokeness.
Now, this was a fringe philosophy. This was a theory from the halls of academia. And it was a challenge to the system. It was an interesting set of ideas. Does it mean that it was all coherent? No, not necessarily. But it was interesting, it was provocative, it was a different way of looking at human relations. It was an interesting worldview in some classroom, in some liberal arts university somewhere.
But wokeness at some point, moved from being about being a challenge to the system, to becoming the system. So to really understand the origin story of wokeism, you have to understand academia first. That's where it was born. It was born as an infant there, and became an adolescent somewhere else, but let's start with the infancy. That's where it began."
