Woke from season 4
Very good show, but the wokeness increased with each season. Trans caracter entering the show on season 4 (if I remember correctly), for instance. Didn't finish season 5 as it was getting too much.

Like 1% woke.
The only potentially woke thing in this movie is mention of colonization and strip-mining Kahndaq. Other than that, the film is well done, some bad CGI moments, and some slight cringe moments, but mostly a great film that focuses on action and ass kicking.

More like Women Forever
This movie is basically nothing but a shill fest for "Strong Women". The men seem to be incompetent, the villain is absolutely uncompromising in his willingness to kill. The CGI is BAD, the plot is convoluted and boring. Plot holes galore. The only good scene was the mid-credit scene. This movie was a poor tribute to the late Chadwick Boseman.

Episode 1: Predictable and forced.
I only watched one episode. If it got better from there, let me know. All other reviews (on other sites) indicate that it went downhill fast. So... Episode one: A tranny, truck stop hooker (good guy) Two smart, strong, scrappy women (main good guys), Two teenage sisters, one is super smart while the other is stereotypically shallow (good guys, of course), a white, male, insecure and idiotic, law-enforcement officer (bad guy) a white, male with severe mommy issues that rival Norman Bates (really bad guy) come together with a forced plot that is as predictable as anything I've ever seen. The situations are about as unrealistic as you'll ever see. Stun guns do NOT cause unconsciousness. They are designed to temporally incapacitate for a few seconds to provide escape.

Fincher x modern woke.
Though being set in the 70’s, the worldview in which the characters exist is very woke. The viewer will have to wade through the swampy world in order to find the rhythm of the story. But once it gets there, arguably, it’s entertaining.
The protagonist is meant to be a 2020's-style modern, progressive feminist male in an 70's environment inhabited with racist, emotional men. He has an emasculating, vulgar girlfriend, establishing him as a beta masochist who’s into manly dominatrix types. Character-wise, it’s telling. There’s even a scene of him ironing his own shirts in front of her while she looks on with distain.
All women characters make disparaging “men are weak” comments. All women are masculine, overbearing and have lines saying verbatim, “I’m tough.” There is no normal or in-between with the female characters. This flat, cookie-cutter character might be the director’s aim, depicting how emasculation didn’t necessarily have the serial-killer result on the effeminate protagonist that it did on the serial killers in question.
And yes, identity politics. Gay, gay, gay. "Representation matters." The manly teacher character is a lesbian. If you’re into that stuff, there is lots of sex of all types, often depraved.
There are hints in the beta protagonist’s lectures like “we shouldn’t incarcerate criminals,” and any cops which think criminals should atone for their crimes are portrayed as stubborn, emotional morons. It’s disingenuous, too, because while the protagonist argues that nothing is black and white, the director only makes black and white types in his own movie.
The story is interesting, and Fincher is always twisted enough to make great stuff, but he hit pretty much every woke branch on the way down the Hollywierd tree with this one. At the moment the only woke stuff this drama lacks is pedophilia and political jabs, but I don’t know if I can get get far enough into the series to find out if he ticks those boxes, too.

Decent, minimal wokeness
This was a decent movie, I couldn’t detect any wokeness.. Not an amazing film by any stretch, but a decent time waster

I mean, it’s ok…
It was a somewhat enjoyable film, minimal wokeness. It did have your typical modern hookup culture vibe to it, but I was happy to see the story resolved to “being in a committed long term relationship is a good thing”

No woke
A rather entertaining documentary about the exploits of Eric Conn, a social security grifter and con artist. Generally fascinating, but the last episode is minimum story and mostly about poor people who want more money from the government. I stopped watching around then.
But was it woke? No. Politics? No. Racism? No. Just a story of a larger-than-life criminal.
