The China part is true but if they were so woke, would Google have tried so hard to kill them off? They tried to sign a secret deal with Tencent to take a 51% stake together and remove Sweeney. Tencent said no.
People think the MLK thing was woke, but in reality it's a step back from the BLM pandering everyone did last year. Still a waste of development time though.
They tried to kill them off because they were wanting to open a competing market place and google in true monopolistic fashion wanted to buy them to prevent competition. It wasn’t “oh they are woke too we will let them
