That is not “literally the definition of less woke”.

It may imply being less “woke”. And a sudden event quickly killing everyone on earth does imply fewer people dying of cancer.

If X implies Y, and one wants Y, this doesn’t not imply that one wants X.

In practice, "being less woke" means "I like to vice signal how edgy I am", particularly in the context of Elon Musk. Doesn't get more vice-signally than calling itself MechaHitler...
