Wut? Local fruits are now “woke”? This is why it’s so hard to take people who “hate woke” seriously lol. Fruits?!?!

Same. Plenty of liberals and anti-Trump people are also sick of the "woke" stuff. Language policing, cancel culture. virtue signaling. Usually dripping with condescending and judgment. It's the how some liberals go about it, not the underlying positions.
If you were actually against this, you'd know repubs are the biggest cancel culture folks. Bud light anyone?![]()

This. You can be liberal and still also find certain "woke" politics and behavior to be obnoxious.
If the two parties are now MAGA and "woke" then we are really, really screwed.

Sydney Sweeny Good Jeans ring a bell? Progressives are trying to cancel her commercials, herself, and her Nazi dog! Love how progressives have learned how to win back the male vote.
Dixie chicks?

This. I'm as liberal as they come- and sometimes some things can be over the top even for me. I still don't use the MAGA-co-opted word 'woke' to describe this. It's a dog whistle. To have asked 'tell me more about what you mean?' would have resulted in you learning further details on what you don't want to be true. This is better. You can pretend not to know this about her and remain friends or let this die so she can commit to her red-pill rabbit hole echo chamber location.
Maybe to you, being liberal as they come, the word “woke” is a dog whistle. I think to most people, the word “woke” embodies why the Dems lost the election to one of the weakest presidential candidates in history. The far left lost this elections, not your average Dems, and your average Dem wouldn’t be offended or “rattled” by someone not liking “woke” culture.
