What does any of this have to do with being "woke"?

Complacency can be dangerous in a hazardous job which, IMO, is what happened. When you walk through a mine field every day and it becomes boring, its only a matter of time before things become exciting and tragic.

I agree with ET2SN. Nothing to do with being "woke." Just a really bad skipper.

Considering that they plowed into a seamount at 16 knots while neglecting the fathometer, I'd say they were "sleep."
