It wasn't "woke" as we know it today with all the transgenderism (although TNG had an episode that dealt with that and, of course, "conversion therapy") But it was woke in the sense that they "abandoned all currency and the desire for things" in TNG (and brought back capitalism in DS9 with the Ferengi). All villainous groups were shown to be ultimately just misunderstood good people.
Eh, JJTrek was always going to fail, so I don't consider it a "miss" per say. Just a regular failure.
Star Trek was never "woke" it was just liberal and progressive, but it always was.
I agree that it's descent mirrors are push towards communism. At least Hollywood's.

Except for the Ferengi because capitalists are inherently evil.
