that last part is the real reason tbh they use the word "woke" to hide their real feelings

You just destroyed their entire argument 😂 we have seen conservative ideas being pushed on all sorts of shows/movies. Looks like we have shows for everyone? Idk why they are snowflakes about it

“Pushing a message” has been around for a loooooooooooooong time my friend. It’s just that you guys have now weaponized the word “woke” to go against anything that is non-traditional. Guess what? A majority of the population supports these “woke messages”. Before you give an example of Velma as “go woke go broke”, we think it sucks as well. Not for the same reasons though.

and yet when “woke” films are made, the anti-woke crowd gets so offended that they review bomb it

My friends who aren’t big star wars fans loved it. I’m the opposite and I got bored in the first 15 minutes. Of course, it takes time for some shows to “hook you in”, so I’m planning on binging it sometime soon

Exactly! There are MANY non-woke shows that have flopped. I guess I should cherry-pick those to push my "woke shows make money" argument just like they do huh? :P

You realize no one is forcing you to watch or like it, right? Just like many non-woke shows, you like or dislike them

Yup but because they are PoC, there is no way they were "great". They think they were just added to the show to meet a checklist and completely disregard their good performance.

Shows have been "woke" for a long time. Nowadays, people see a PoC/Female/LGBT lead and automatically call it "woke" and review bomb it without giving it a chance. Yes, there are shows that suck but there are maaaaany "non-woke" shows that also suck. What's your point?
