Morphology
The compound is largely compositionally interpretable: combining 'woke' (high awareness of injustice) with 'supremacist' (someone who asserts dominance) yields the idea of a person who insists that 'woke' views should dominate. However, this is a metaphorical extension of 'supremacist' (normally used for racial ideology) and 'woke' is slang and politically charged, so the precise connotations and pragmatic use may not be fully predictable to a B1 learner.
Etymology
Woke supremacist joins woke, meaning someone 'awake to social injustice', with supremacist, a person who thinks their view should be 'above' others. Picture someone so sure they are right that they push their progressive views to control the conversation; that's why the phrase means a person who forces their progressive views on others.
