You’re completely missing the more useful point. The right says “woke and political,” implicitly referencing the complex change I described above. The left quotes the right saying “woke and political” as an implicit dismissal of civil rights, diversity, representation, etc. Both of these lazy-ass anachronisms suck big huge elephant dicks and ruin the political discourse in the media.
I don’t think the output of a media outlet is a useful handle on what individuals mean when they use politicized terms. To put it another way, if you’re going to quote Fox you should also quote HuffPo.
You’re misreading me and moving the goalposts. There is a media trend which can be (very poorly) described as “woke and political.” One of the reasons why people who are bothered by this trend should refrain from using this code/shorthand is that it allows other people to project hate onto it, which is, in my view, equally shitty. Outlets like Fox deliberately court this behavior because it drives engagement. You shared their viral content for them. I wonder if you even viewed one of their ads on the way.

It’s a huge number of examples of that right wing individuals using “woke” in a vague way.
Show me one example of a right wing individual using “woke” in a specific way.

Yeah I’m browsing the fediverse but I don’t know how to install AdBlock on my browser.
“woke” has always been vague, on purpose. It’s so you can retcon any “implicit” meaning you want, as you tried to.
Right wingers don’t use “woke” in a specific way and we both know it, that’s why you can’t muster a single example to back up your claim.
