Is willfully ignorant asshole.

3. I prefer to define the opposite of woke as being a brain-dead zombie.

But willfully ignorant asshole also fits.
On the other hand, I see woke as the natural state of Humanity.

4. opposite of woke is being asleep

Which is why it is called "the American Dream" - you have to be asleep to believe in it

2. For that matter, it was "woke" people who wrote the Declaration of Independence.

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.--That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed,

It would have been nice to have included women in all the equality, but they were half "woke," at least.
