Y'all are the only ones that use the term. The onus is on you to produce a workable definition that can be written down without changing the definition when it's convenient.

I'm willing to accept the definition Ron desantis' lawyer used:

During the testimony, Warren's attorney, Jean-Jacques Cabou asked those within DeSantis' administration what "woke" meant to them.

The governor's general counsel, Ryan Newman, said, in general, it means "the belief there are systemic injustices in American society and the need to address them." He added that DeSantis doesn't believe there are systemic injustices in the country, reports Florida Politics.
