Wokeness is a new wrapper for the same age-old premise lying behind behind socialism/communism: the equality of outcomes. The various branches of wokeness (social causes - racism, sexism, genderism, etc - and political causes - poor little countries, regions or populations are better than larger more powerful countries, regions or populations) all presume that when there is a differential in power, the source of that differential is the evil manipulations of the more powerful party. In other words, according to this philosophy (which is a strain of thought probably as old as humanity itself), the "loser" in any competition became that because the winner cheated. There is no acceptance that there are inherent ingrained differences in ability among the members of humanity, and that social stratification is a natural process. Woke is thus the current version of a push toward radical egalitarianism. Because there are natural differences in ability among individuals, woke is promoting a fundamentally impossible future. The first step to understanding woke is to realize it is the same as egalitarian philosophies going back throughout history; the only difference among these philosophies is which groups they choose to label as "oppressor" and "oppressed". Beyond that, the thought process and the expectations have always been the same. I hope this helps.

In a more humorous vein, the following clip says the same thing:
