Another Leftist propagandist for the Democrats

This guy has TDS in a bad way. Most of these MSM "journalists" do. They're shameless mouthpieces for Big Brother. Woke ideology is a tool for doing that. It divides and conquers the West.

Just another Leftist propagandist

This man has a bad case of TDS. He is not a journalist. He's a talking head for the Democrats.

Woke moment at the end of it

Right at the very end, the guy thinks the space station was named after him but in fact, it was named after his daughter. She's the genius who apparently found the theory to save humanity -- though not without her father's help and sacrifice when he sent her messages through spacetime from another dimension. But instead of appreciating what he's done, she hated him for years for abandoning her and then when they see each other again, she almost seems to dismiss him. I think if I were in her position I'd clear the room to see him and give him my full attention. Most feminists hated their fathers, however. So if there is a woke element here it's a subtle one: that a man may give his life in the name of duty but he's really he's just selfish for doing so -- while a woman is the hero in the end. Girl power. There is also some wokeness in the idea that humans caused an environmental apocalypse (i.e., climate change). Otherwise a good, "hard SF" movie about black holes and space travel and parallel universes, quantum physics, etc. And also about the sadness of family separation.

Anything with Ryan Renolds in it is automaticlal woke

His brand of sarcastic humour always strikes me as queer. Fun film though.

p.s. reading the other reviews, I see that I overlooked some rather damning quotes from the script that seem woke. When I am watching a film I try to filter out woke crap so as to enjoy the film. Glad someone else noticed them.

Another film where killing Germans is the main point

How many of these have there been? It's getting tiring. Not all Germans were Nazis. It's part of the same trend of representing white men as evil and expendable. But you almost never see the Communists as the bad guys, except in the rare film like Red Dawn. Curious. That aside, Sisu is a war film about an invincible character who kills as many Germans as he can. Good if you like violent revenge movies.

In the first Avatar, the bad guys are men trying to pave the way for a mining project. The good guys are based on Native Americans defending their land. It's written by James Cameron, a super woke director, to convey his pantheism (Earth-worshipping) worldview. It's a lot like Dances with Wolves, where the main character "goes native" and joins them against his own people. Real life is not as simple as this narrative. In some situations, mining and oil projects help indigenous people with jobs and prosperity they'd not otherwise have. This one seems to be a continuation of the anti-colonial pantheist vision, which demonizes white men and glorifies natives.

Mixed review

Yes, this is very woke. The lead villain is (of course) a patriotic straight white man and his fans are clearly based on Trump voters -- but also a very clever and well-done show, despite that. I had to overlook the woke b.s. to be able to enjoy this show. The Season 3 finale was really disappointing. I don't plan to keep watching it after that. I have mixed feelings about this show. It was entertaining but at the same time, I would not recommend it to anyone.

A lot of lesbians and race stuff

If you want to see a tv show about ugly lesbians hurting one another, this is the one.

Not woke

One of the old Western tv shows of the 1950s. The opposite of woke. About real men and women.

incrementally woke

It got increasingly woke over the years, seemingly influenced by BLM and GLAAD (the LBGTQ agenda). The storylines are sometimes preposterous when the villains are caricatures of what Leftists imagine "fascists" to be. The old Law & Order was good though.

Obviously woke-free

Pretty much everything from the 1950s was. The woke mind virus is a product of cultural Marxism, which was theorized in the 1950s, picked up steam in the 60s and 70s, but took another 50 years to mature into full-blown Leftism taking over all our major institutions and destroying the West from within. The tragedy is the West is the best civilization in human history hands down. One way it's being destroyed is through entertainment Mark Dice has a book on this called Hollywood Propaganda.

Woke-free

The folks in this show remind me of Southern Democrats of the early 20th century. The actor who played Grandpa (Will Geer) was in real life a gay Communist but I don't recall that coming through in the show. It was good family entertainment.
