I don't really understand what you are calling woke. All woke means is "alert to injustice and discrimination in society, especially racism". I don't believe being woke would make anyone less of a man, if anything, it would make a man have more heart, and be more willing to die for someone unlike himself. IMO.

https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/woke

(slang, often derogatory) Holding left-wing views or attitudes, principally with regards to certain social justice issues or to an excessive degree.

Usage notes
Like politically correct, woke started off as a positive word used by people to describe themselves and their behavior and gained negative connotations over time. Some derogatory uses of woke refer to people who would self-identify as woke.

Proverb
get woke, go broke
(informal, neologism) Businesses that attempt to align themselves with social justice causes are liable to lose customers.

The very first line of the Wiktionary definition ends in "to an excessive degree". So, what they did is give it radical view.

What happens when a Muslim or Christian turns into a radical? They are not a Muslim or a Christian anymore, they have turned into a terrorist.
