That one dude's misunderstanding of Peter B. Parker is so sad to me. "Is this an attempt to mock and belittle the Spider-Man people know and love?" What, by giving him a family, seeing him having overcome his fear of fatherhood, have him be happy, showing him be an active part in the lives of the next generation of Spider-People and having a hero whose personal life *and* heroic life don't suck? Is that mockery and belittlement, to show a character living a happy, fulfilled life? Because if so @ God belittle me, please!

Just keep in mind that there isn't one big bad political organisation pushing this agenda, there's hundreds of organisations with slightly different agendas. The vast majority of KZitem is left leaning because Google is left leaning. It doesn't hurt to get some balance in your diet, but in general once you start to notice how political things are they become a lot less interesting.

That's back when the anti-woke used to win, one of the biggest parts of the Hayes code that censored Hollywood was about not showing black and white people (of either sex) together UNLESS they were the bad guys, or the black person was a servant, so as not to encourage the races to mix socially. That part of the Hayes code is also where we get "won't somebody think of the children" from. Showing black and white people being friends, or so much worse, lovers would encourage it in real life, and their children wouldn't be black or white, they wouldn't even be human.

here's how to identify woke in your media: step 1, ask the following questions: can the media, in any way, be possibly interpreted as presenting anything other that the ideals of the 1850s? does the media, in any way, represent any minority in any way beyond them existing neutrally? does the movie give any sort of message that would say that it's in any way okay to be a part of a minority? If you were to hand the media to a Klansman, Nazi, or Confederate would any of them dislike it? did the media, despite not being attributed to any of the previous, fail after launch? step 2: if you answered yest to any of them, you should throw out the entire thing. It's too woke to be saved. Otherwise, congrats, you have a non-woke movie.

I've also noticed that as soon as the "woke" thing turns out to be actually good, it suddenly isn't woke anymore. It happened with "Mad Max: Fury Road" and "Dune" as well. I've seen a dude argue, without a hint of irony, that the casting of a black woman as Liet Kynes in "Dune" isn't woke because "she's a mother and the left hates motherhood and the maternal role". Of course, the fact that Liet is a parent isn't even mentioned in the movie. That level of cognitive dissonance and mental gymnastics must physically hurt.

Teenagers have always and will always be stupid, and clowns like these wokespotters will always show up to profit off of that stupidity.

As someone raised in the conservative culture wars of the 80s and 90s, I see "anti-wokeness" as the newer, louder, more accelerated version of "politically incorrect" (e.g. reactionary conservative) rhetoric. It's the latest strain of "Rush Limbaugh yells about Mulan existing" or "my dad is angry that Princess Leia is a good shot". I wasn't allowed to watch Ghostbusters media as a kid because it was "demonic". Anything with a female protagonist or a prominent character of color was "PC" and therefore bad--yes, including the Alien and Terminator movies. Disney was on thin ice with my family because they kept putting out movies that portrayed white Christians negatively--e.g. Frollo in The Hunchback of Notre Dame. (Never mind that I went to church with hundreds of Frollos and knew them inside and out already.) For some reason, the summary of the phenomenon that I keep returning to is an episode of Gargoyles. The characters (time-displaced fantasy creatures from 10th-century Scotland) encounter a cave containing the ghosts of two people they knew back home. Both ghosts are animated by their eternal loathing for each other and the main characters, but over the course of the episode, one of the ghosts discovers he was mistaken and has been holding a pointless grudge for centuries. By the end of the episode, one ghost forgives and moves on to an implied afterlife while the other remains trapped in the cave. The last we hear of him, he's screaming at the heroes' retreating backs: "Don't leave me here with no one to hate!" As a kid, I thought the line was corny, but it stuck with me. I hear it echo in my ears every time I see what you call "wokespotters" desperately trying to find new targets for their viewers' rage. They really are that unsubtle. Their greatest fear is being left alone with no one to hate.

I could point you at ancient Greek and Roman authors complaining about the weak, decadent, and wayward youth of their day and sounding EXACTLY like boomers now. There's even a word for it -- juvenoia. It seems like every generation of humans thinks things were just about perfect when they were young -- which is coincidentally also when their joints didn't hurt, they could eat whatever they wanted, everyone told them they were pretty, and they hadn't yet lived long enough to have much of a basis for comparison for anything. The only people I've met who WEREN'T nostalgic for their childhoods and convinced that their generation had the best stuff were my paternal grandparents ... who both grew up on farms in Ohio during the Great Depression, and who therefore were nostalgic for the post-WW2 period, when things finally were a little less dire for them.

Mario went beyond the Peach wearing pants thing. The previews showed Princess Peach getting ready to defend her kingdom, and looking prepared, while it showed Mario's early struggles. All of a sudden, they were claiming "Woke agenda" all over the place, not even stopping for a moment to even think about good story telling. Not even stopping to think rationally about how the plot goes. Comparing someone, who has already lived in the Mushroom Kingdom, and put in a position of power and responsibility, and backed into a wall. But no, this guy who just arrived there (which is shown from the first trailer) should automatically know everything about how the mushroom kingdom works should be better (day one) than every long-lived citizen. (I guess that analogy of convincing someone that they are better by birth than another, they'll give you all their money has some truth). Plus, not to mention it's a Mario Movie, and one with which the audience is to identify with the titular character. I'm sure none of us remember struggling to figure out Super Mario and we could just beat Bowser on World 8-4 day one. That's sarcasm. Of course, they changed their tune on the Mario movie, and practically 180d it. And no, not for any real reason, and Peach still was active and did great things in the film. No, but because they saw it as a movie competing with the Disney film at the time, and they wanted to stick it to Disney. So Mario became the movie they got behind to claim some "sales victory" over Disney. Because someone told them to.

It's hilarious and sad how people like Tyrone literally got his brain melted as he stumble deep into AntiSJW talking point. Some people are seriously trying to say, The Guardians Vol 3 film is great because its the only recent none woke Marvel film, or the only film with get this, AN AGENDA!! Forgetting the fact that the film is basically pro animal rights, drax's whole arc is basically from him being a Fighter to a dad, Mantis literally leaves her family to try and found herself (feminist icon right here), the villain is literally a supremacist and the whole theme of the Guardians is basically centered on found family. It's literally woke as heck and i love it for it. Nebula is literally a cyborg and their main concern is that they can't jackoff to her anymore? Super heroes movies are woke as heck and are very political too. It literally tackles or sort of real world problem from intensive police surveillance, corruption in the government, housing problems, finding your identity, discrimination, even relationship or different family dynamics. If this can include straight dynamic or romance so can gay relationships. I guess the only reason it's not woke for them is that because gay characters didn't exist or the reason it didn't push an Agenda because it didn't focus on female characters that much??? This film is proof that for AntiSJWs, there are only two sexualities, Straight or Political. There are only two genders. Men or Political. That Anti-SJWs are literally just the worse. XD For the record for Tyrone, you don't look like a happy fan. You look like a crazed lunatic that went down the anti-sjw rabbit hole.

The closest we ever got were Stering and Moviebob and neither found much success, once they tried to pander to the anger. But you sure as hell see it on the right.

its a really weird thing in american culture. "Politics" is what people call anything they aren't really forced to interact with on a daily basis. Its why that infrastructure bill got passed, roads can't be political to the average person, because they use them. Food stamps are political to people who don't use them. It's an inversion of the old quote "the personal is the political." The american goal, culturally, as someone living here, is often to insulate ones self from society, and therefore society becomes political. It's why people in suburbs tend to be much more quick to call anything they don't like political.

I have a friend who's convinced Hollywood makes bad movies with female protagonists on purpose because they want male protagonists to return to being the default. I keep explaining to him that a) Hollywood likes to include things that make them look woke, but in fact a lot of the problems with these female protagonists are because they aren't being written like real people, which ironically is due to the producers' sexism (and general poor writing in modern blockbuster movies) and b) we subconsciously judge female protagonists for things that wouldn't bother us if a male protagonist did them, so you have to account for that. But yes I will concede that Hollywood may have picked up the habit of looking at films not destined for greatness and saying "throw some diversity in there so lefties will feel obligated to support it and anyone who criticizes it can be accused of just being racist or sexist."

Are gay people allowed to appear in film? If you say they are, then what makes the appearance of THIS gay person 'woke?' If someone's sexuality isn't stated, is it okay to suspect that they may be gay? Why or why not? What about the background actors -- what if every one of them was gay?

Not just Ripley, but also Vasquez in the second film as well. She kills the most aliens in the movie, and let's not forget how she takes out one alien in HAND-TO-HAND combat when crawling in the vents, kicking its head against the vent walls before putting bullets in its skull... which... actually didn't kill it right away and also led to her demise when its blood spilled on her legs and prevented her from being able to keep moving... but I digress. Also, this exchange: Hudson: Hey, Vasquez, have you ever been mistaken for a man? Vasquez: No. Have you?

Well the thing is wokespotting isn't really a good term for it because "woke" is just the newest buzzword and will be outdated in a few years, less than ten years ago it was "millennials", before that "political correctness", and I don't care to name every other buzzword all the way back to Greece and Rome. I actually suggest a term in Latin so it'll always stay the same. Make no mistake, millennials, whether they are straight, white, black, bi, gay, trans, etc WILL try to backstab the next generation when they get old and act like they were so much better. I've already seen it happen more than a few times (and not just Matt Walsh and Michael Knowles), they'll have their own stupid buzzword, and they WILL bitch about how THEY HAD IT SO MUCH WORSE THAN THE NEW GENERATION. People act like social media is to blame, but the reality is NOBODY WANTS TO DRAG UP EVERY INSTANCE OF OLD SHITHEADS COMPLAINING ABOUT YOUNGER PEOPLE BEING OLD SHITHEADS COMPLAINING ABOUT YOUNGER PEOPLE, and yes, the media infrastructure to do was there back then too.

The criticism that the Mario movie was woke because Peach was wearing pants or was taking a more action-centered role frustrated me because it was clearly coming from people who haven't played a Mario game in a very long time. But they were still talking like not making her a damsel in distress was somehow rewriting her character or something. Peach taking a more active role in the action has been something Nintendo's been doing for a long while now. Hell, in Mario x Rabbids Peach had a laser shotgun (and was one of my favorite units in that game).

Not to mention, it seems like even in recent games where she is kidnapped, there is a little twist to shake things up. For instance, in Mario Odyssey, her feeling overwhelmed after her rescue (after a stressful kidnapping, obviously) and being bombarded with Mario and Bowser proposing to her made her insist that enough is enough. In the endgame, she's allowed to wander freely.

HOWEVER, I still detest Shad and numerous others making a huge fuss and making it to be far more nefarious. God, I hate humanity sometimes...

Yet Marvel gender swapped the character and these grifters are not angry at this. Yet when Mar-vel went from male to female for the Captain Marvel movie or the Ancient One in Doctor Strange, suddenly it is "woke". Cause Male -> Female is woke but the reverse is not.

It is funny how they call GotG 3 anti-woke when they were the ones who tried to cancel James Gunn when he criticized Trump. Then they tried to cancel Gunn again for rebooting the DCU. Plus Gunn is pretty outspoken about his politics and he's definitely not with the anti-woke crowd. At this point, they just attribute movies that don't do well to it being woke rather than problems with the writing or directing that have nothing to do with "woke." There have been plenty of bad movies or box office bombs that didn't have women or minority leads. Saying that a movie like Eternals didn't do well solely because it was woke makes as much sense as saying that The Mummy, Wrath of the Titans, the Ben Hurr remake, John Carter, etc. did badly because they had male leads.

Also where woke became "woke" 3. with this change it eventually became used by said racists/sexists/homophobics to describe anything they hated without having to explain it was because of thier sexists/racist/homophobic mentality 4. modern use of woke is almost now exclusively used by the alt-right as anything they want to discredit to appease said racists/sexists/homophobics into making out tolerance as evil and anyone tolerent is a fool/evil.

Maybe it pops up on your feed, maybe you search it out, but you find a video explaining what's 'wrong' with her. Aha! You now have the words to explain your feelings, and all these people agree with you as well. Now the next time you see a movie you got back to that person's channel or someone like them to see what they thought, and if they disliked it in the same way you did. And soon it becomes the framework for how you critique a movie, and now you have no incentive to learn things about screenplaya or writing or executive meddling because your framework for what makes a movie bad is entirely divorced from those things. And, neurologically speaking, it's very rewarding to get excited and worked up about things! It's addicting, so it's very easy to start going into movies looking to get mad instead of trying them with an open mind.
