"Woke" was only ever a massive scaremongering hype by the far right, 
which a lot of folks fell for, hook, line & sinker.


Case in point:

"NCAA president says there are ‘less than 10’ transgender athletes in 
college sports

DEC 19, 2024 / 11:36 AM CST

NCAA President Charlie Baker told a Senate panel that there are fewer 
than 10 transgender athletes he is aware of who currently compete in 
college sports, pouring cold water on an issue Republicans have said is 
a nationwide problem and one that is increasingly fraught territory for 
Democrats.

“How many athletes are there in the U.S. in NCAA schools?” Sen. Dick 
Durbin (D-Ill.) asked Baker during a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing 
Tuesday on federal regulations around sports gambling.

“Five hundred and ten thousand,” said Baker, a former Republican 
governor of Massachusetts who has served as president of the NCAA, which 
governs intercollegiate athletics at more than 1,000 colleges and 
universities across the country, since 2023."

For those who are bad at math, 10/510,000 = 0.002%

FYI, let's also preempt the "..but what if the NCAA's reporting system 
is wrong?" scaremongering scenario:

The above number is so small that their reporting would have to be wrong 
by 50,000% for it to become even but 1% of their population.
