What about D2 did you think was woke? Is it that you can play as a strong, independent woman able to kill hordes of men like a badass? Or something about the story?

One thing I liked about D1 was that the witches were pure evil. Continuing in Brigmore Witches, there was literally nothing redeeming about them. Delilah tried for sympathy points but it didn't feel like the story supported that. In 2020 it would've ended up like Cruella.

Although in my head canon, the whole imperial government including Jessamine and Emily are corrupt decadent oligarchs, and there's not really anything in the story that conflicts with that idea.

The fact that Arkane removed a elements from a prostitution section of the game from Dishonored 2 directly because of "She-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named"'s whining automatically puts Dishonored 2 in the woke category. Emily's personality and look were also "inspired" by Sarkeesian's "feedback" according to the director.

Buying Dishonored 2 was indirectly helping the Feminist Frequency cause.

Shit that's terrible. I don't follow behind-the-scenes news and just go by what's in the final product. Anyone who lets that woman near their production deserves to go bankrupt.
