Woke Left to me was most easily defined as Ibram Kendi ideology. “The only remedy to racist discrimination is antiracist discrimination. The only remedy to past discrimination is present discrimination. The only remedy to present discrimination is future discrimination." The ideology of all outcomes have to be equal or else its racism, and forcing Whites and Blacks into equal outcomes is the only solution. Kendi also once said this no problems exist in the Black community not solved by eliminating Whiteness. To me this is what wokeness was, and cancel anyone who disagrees. Woke right has no such beliefs.
"Eliminating whiteness" is just code for the genocide of white people. Whiteness has long been eliminated from many urban areas which are now firmly under the control of blacks, browns and sometimes Asians or a combination thereof yet that hasn't led to a golden age of achievement and prosperity among blacks and other non-whites.
Yes, you are right. The core foundation of "wokeness" is a belief in an intentional systemic oppression of blacks (and, to a lesser extent, other groups) by whites that has existed since the founding of America and continues to this day. In the minds of the woke, the only solution is a reversal of that systemic oppression. There is no equivalent to this belief on the right. I think Scott addressed this well.
Jim Lindsay is a retarded idiot and "woke right" just isn't sticking like they hoped it would and he and others who toss it around are embarrassing themselves. Lindsay also argues in bad faith, uses straw man tactics and acts like the positions and claims of the pro-white and anti-Jewish right are self evidently wrong.
Regarding "woke" that usually meant people who were woke to America's alleged (white) racism and social and economic injustices towards non-whites. Wokesters also believe that poor whites are also the recipient of white privilege and if one doubts this they are also white supremacists so better shut up and just get on board.
Lindsay and his dorky entourage must know little about American history as observing racial differences, especially as it concerns blacks, and discussion of the Jewish question was very much a part of American discourse prior to the end of WWII. So much so that Henry Ford even commissioned the Dearborn Independent to study the Jewish question. It was only following WWII that those subjects become taboo since white Americans were lectured that, however true, that they could lead to American Nazism and atrocities against blacks and Jews in America.
Now he is changing the term to the Buchanan Right. He maligns people who supported Pat Buchanan. If Buchananism has taken over the GOP instead of Bushism, we would never have invaded Iraq, and for sure not had as many illegal migrants pouring over the border. More protections for us workers too!!
Wokeness is the belief that some people's lives are so bad through no fault of their own that woke people can ignore historical norms (10 commandments, maybe? many other alternatives!) and do whatever needs to be done to rectify this outrage. Some of the "best and brightest" demonstrated my theory in New Jersey recently.
We can't just ignore wokeness. Any one of us might be the next person cursed, pushed, cancelled, shot. There can be no tolerance for anyone who thinks the do hurtful things to other people.
I haven't followed this much but it seems that it means RWers who are skeptical of or hostile to Israel. You can dress it up with academese about supposed undue emphasis identitarian concerns, as if these were subordinate or even entirely separate from"practical" matters like economics or foreign policy, but I think my definition is correct.

They never learn without us, they have nothing and all the luxuries of societies ruled by us go away without us.

No more wokeness. Let's get back to important business... TAX CUTS.
