wokel
noun/ˈwəʊ̯kəl/UK/ˈwəwkəl/
Etymology
Blend of woke + yokel.
Definitions
Somebody who speaks for progressive (“woke”) values in spite of missing education.
- By analogy with yokels, the ignorance and naivety of woke fascists makes them “wokels”. Then why are so many academics woke? Surely, they must be the opposite of wokels.
- On the other hand, I can already hear critics bellowing that giving men free booze promotes patriarchy rather than subverts it. Such a program would be a tough sell to the local wokels.
