The left isn't woke, imo. Usually the elements that can be termed "woke" are shills and on a mission to stir things up without any end to benefit the public - or even the minorities they pay lip service to. Of course that is meant about the actual political powers, not independent activists - they can have their own goals.
Another question, however, is whether there exists any meaningful "left" by now. When it does appear (as in under Corbyn with the labour party) it was swiftly attacked by the media, including supposedly "left" media like the Guardian.
Same, correspondingly, with Bernie in the US, when he dared to speak of low income as the core issue instead of the usual group vs group that is designed to keep things exactly where they stand.
