99% of what you hear people like that accuse others of is pure protection. They’re telling you what they want to do without realizing it, so “woke agenda trying to brainwash our kids!” could be translated into “we want to brainwash kids toward our ideology.”
I remember a coworker saying something about trans people and how we can’t say anything anymore because it all has to be about them or something. I never got the impression this person was bigoted. It seemed completely out of character. I said something like (“They just want equal rights and the same respect as you and I. What’s the issue?”) Maybe people should worry more about weather or not their kids are learning the life skills they need to survive and less about weather or not their kids see two dudes kissing in a movie. Mom and dad need to untighten their buttholes. Even if I don’t understand something, I try to be empathetic and understanding to those who are different from me. I wish everyone else did.
Yeah, that movie was so ass. My perfect summation of it. We rented it, my daughter picked it out. Like ten minutes in, she says something like, “This is so terrible, I am going to my room.”
Now, normally, she will just ignore whayever is on and play on her phone or whatever and ignore it, this, she actively wanted to flee from.
I disagree, Ghostbusters: Answer the Call received way more hate than it deserved. I really enjoyed it and I have rewatched it a bunch of times, more than I’ve rewatched Ghostbusters 2. Holtzman is my favorite character and I love the goofy dance she does with Abby. And I love Chris Hemsworth’s character, he does big goofy handsome guy really well.
It was way better than the last 2. I watched Afterlife once and I have no interest in watching Frozen Throne at all.
I’m with you. 2016 may not compare to the original, but it was a solid comedy with a good heart. The bloody meltdown parts of the internet had over it was insane.
Meh. Leslie Jones’s character was the laziest “sassy black woman” stereotype I’ve ever seen. Whoever wrote that drivel isn’t fit to work on a 3rd rate sketch comedy show let alone a big budget Hollywood movie.
JP series with chris pratt is also bad, but i dont see conservative complaining about that, oh becauses the one as the lead, and not someone J Lawrence. i bet they love him even more now that he identifies as a far right christian.
it applied to all SCI fi show both pre-STD(DISCOVERY) thats what really got thier panties in a wad, when kurtzman made all the women have lead roles.SG1 wasnt spared either, as recently Invincible was called woke, just because the female general in coalition took command of the ship (the planet of ragnarrs) to refreeze the beasts.
there was definitely a concerted effort around 2020(thats when woke became super prominent in comments of shows like star trek) around election time to illicit more voters to side with conservatives through propaganda.
i was going to mentioned that, since they race swapped her. sandman was another example of race and gender swapping people, Death was suppose to be a goth white chick, and LUCIFER was gwendoline instead of a blond white guy. they alway attribute terrible writing to DEI/WOKENESS
Pretty sure “woke DEI crap” is universally understood as pandering. And everyone is pissed at stories being written specifically to scream woke crap at you instead of just incorporating diversity in, as it fits the story itself, and moving on with a good show.
These days it seems like most things getting called “woke DEI crap” are totally in line with the norms of society, but someone wants to change that.
I never thought of it like that. Fuck, that’s depressing.

the moment maga calls something woke… I embrace that game/tvshow/movie/book. they all turn out to be pretty good (other than a few gacha games)
Sometimes they’re accidentally right about something sucking, but always for a different reason than culture war BS. Ghostbusters 2016, for example.

Holy fuck, how many of the things have they made? Jurassic fucking Park over here lol.

They’re trying hard to change it. Almost like they have a playbook of some kind…
I did Nazi that coming
