Reply to comment by SanSeb in Why still the push for "woke" tv-shows and movies, when almost all of them result in a flop? by [deleted]

If it makes you feel better I don’t think you’re an incel, just an idiot with confirmation bias.

Great contribution insulting me instead of bringing one argument that relates to my post. Let me guess, you are from the US?
No clue, but strong opinions and only knowing extremes.

Okay, for example both House of the Dragon and Rings of Power had diverse characters and both were successful, but since one was more successful than the other, you consider HotD successful non woke and RoP a woke flop.

HotD has great characters. Female and Male. Therefore the issue with the race of the Valaryans can be overlooked. The lead protagonists Rhaenyra and Alicent show feminine attributes that make them believable, foremost the well-being of their kids. They are not jumping around and single handedly killing monsters and physically strong knights. Because no sense in a world that is not "woke".

So it wasn’t woke because it was well written? See this is why I think you’re an idiot.

Listen "idiot", the decision to cast them as black, is still woke. But they at least tried to make it fit with there being a whole family. Also, all the characters where well written, so this issue does not have a major impact on the show itself.

Meanwhile the lotr universe having only white male dwarves and one random black female one, is weird without explanation. The actress did a good job though I have to say.

Right, so well written shows= not woke, poorly written shows=woke.

See this is why I think you’re an idiot.

In this thread: OP Accuses replier of "strong opinions" and only "knowing extremes" when said replier responded to his strongly opinionated (one might say extreme) post.

Stop watching American media if you hate the US so much.
