Morphology
Hollywoke + view
The compound is a recent blend of 'Hollywood' + 'woke', so a learner who knows those constituents could infer it refers to progressive/socially-conscious views associated with Hollywood. However, 'Hollywoke' is a coined, culturally loaded and partially pejorative slang term that requires socio-political background and awareness of 'woke' usages, so the meaning is not fully predictable for an average B1 learner.
Etymology
Hollywoke view mixes Hollywood and woke, creating an image of movie stars or people in entertainment using their fame to push 'progressive' ideas. So, it means an opinion that comes from celebrities or the film world rather than from everyday life.
