Slang used to describe someone perceived as taking progressive social awareness, political correctness, or identity politics to an extreme or excessive degree. 'Hyperwoke' is generally used critically — either by conservatives dismissing any social progressivism, or by moderates and progressives themselves calling out performative or counterproductive over-correction. Like most 'woke'-derived terms, its meaning and connotation shift dramatically depending on who's using it and why.
