Woke is an AAVE term that was coined in the early 1940s by a black jazz musician as a watch word related to racism- both overt and subtle. 

It gained prominence in the late 2000s/early 2010s, likely a result of its usage in Erykah Badu's song "Master Teacher" that was released in 2008.

The word was quickly co-opted as a pejorative by the right wing to smear anyone to the left of hunting the homeless for sport as some kind of hard left wing socialist hippies that liked to find racism everywhere. 

This new usage of the word became popular as a rhetorical tool to paint anything that was outside a given person's worldview as some kind of radical plot to forcibly change every single thing about society that they were comfortable with. That is, "woke" replaced "sjw (social justice warrior)" which replaced "politically correct" as a right wing bogeyman that could easily be appropriated and weaponized.

And now, "woke" is often being used as a dog whistle to obfuscate the very racism it was coined to highlight. The irony shouldn't be lost here.

The right didn't come up with any of these. People called themselves a thing and went around trying to change the world. They are generally insufferable and their ideas are bad, so the words they use become a pejorative and they have to rebrand.
