Somewhat related, I've come to the realization that "woke" means "not being an a**hole".

And man, are a**holes angry that society tells them they shouldn't be a**holes.
Not being an assh-le means not being an assh-le. "Woke" frankly is something else, and I'm only able to classify it in context. When someone like JBP uses it, "woke" covers the spectrum from 'annoying Twitter mob' to 'advocates for common decency'. It's like turning on a faucet with a calcified aerator, that sh-t just gets everywhere.

"Hey, you can't park here."
"Up yours, woke moralists."
"I'm the Fire Marshal, you're parked in a fire lane."

In any case, it's performative at this point, it has to be. "Use only as much as you need" just makes sense. Now, having the guy in the black button up in the bar lavatory shouting "p-ssy p-ssy p-ssy", spritzing you with unwanted AXE body spray, and giving you a tiny square of paper towel, then expecting a ten dollar tip... well, I don't know if that's tyrannical, but I do know it's assh-lerry at its finest.
