Wokus pokus - what is it?

Noun: Meaningless woke related talk or activity, often designed to draw attention away from and disguise what is actually happening.

Everything was going well at the party until this googly-eyed, left-wing hipster showed up and began to blurt out some wokus pokus to draw away from the fact that he soiled his skinny jeans.

What does "wokus pokus" mean?

The ever increasingly deranged nonsense spouted by the wokerati. The more woke the individual, the greater their level of wokus pokus bullshit.

Carmel is doing my head in with all her wokus pokus. I'm sick and tired of her claiming to be offended by everything and wish she'd just piss off.
