DEI, LGBTQ and White Bashing/Groveling
Where to start? Jake, Law’s character, spends the show groveling to every woman around him—especially his black female co-star. Enter Roxy: the uppity, black, girl-boss in the kitchen, who's in a gay and biracial relationship of course, and apparently the only thing holding Jake’s life together since, as a straight white male, he’s incapable. She can't stop complaining any time Jake doesn't do exactly what she tells him. Then there’s Cleopatra "Duck Lips" Coleman who's Jake’s “prize,” because God forbid we don’t have an interracial couple.
Bateman’s Vince? A bumbling man who can get his act together—naturally, since he’s straight and white. The villains? White, too, with a deaf leader for extra box-checking. Every DEI / LGB square gets ticked. Black male characters? Rich and virtuous. They even squeeze in a #MeToo subplot with Jake’s white friend revealed as a rapist though the victim heaps much of the blame on Jake. And what's with Jake's son, Hunter wishing for ballet tickets for his birthday? Really? How many gay characters can you shoe horn into a mini series? That's 4!!
As soon as everyone can, they start betraying Jake who's only ever been extremely nice to them. Everyone around him is a back-stabber.
There's a police presence in several episodes. Of course the detective is this quite mannish Asian woman who is after Jake and no one else. In this world white men are either bad guys or inept.
By Episode 4, the message is clear: bash straight white men, elevate everyone else. At this point, I’m just waiting for the inevitable trans character cameo.

Feminist and LGBTQ Narratives
Just watch the first 5 minutes and you'll get to meet the youngest, most intelligent, prestigious and beautiful Yale / Oxford professor, because yeah, that's a thing. And they throw a gay couple at you early because their sexuality is important to the story of witches and vampires.....

Skydance Media pledged to eliminate DEI programs, really?
First of all, Tom Cruise is the shit.
The president is a gay, black female. The two Navy Captains in the script are a 65 year old platinum blonde white lady and a cool black dude. Of the 3 Navy divers the one with the most screen time with Tom is very likey a trans man or at least a very butch lesbian. The two secret services agents are an Asian female and a cis white dude. Guess which one tries to kill the president? They turn Luther into Morgan Freeman on narration duties in this one. The two pilots that drop Tom off at the sub rendezvous are both chicks, one of which has Hollywoke face. This movie has so much DEI and LGBTQ representation that it could have been approved by Kamala Harris if anyone could find her.

Superman: Rise of the Girlbosses
1. Lex Luthor as a Trump/racism analogy – portrayed as a political stand-in rather than a classic villain.
2. Lesbian “girl boss” characters – framed as unnecessary identity-driven inclusions.
3. Emphasis on Gen Z & TikTok culture – forcing modern social media trends into the story.
4. Superman as an immigrant allegory – James Gunn explicitly tying the film to immigration politics.
5. Casting & representation focus – many Indian characters with central roles (e.g., convenience store worker, taco vendor), highlighted as part of diversity emphasis.

Straight, White Male? Oh No!
Within the *literal* first minute of the film, a straight, white, male lab tech—Hollywood’s favorite new whipping boy—fumbles his candy bar wrapper into a security vent, short-circuiting the system and triggering a catastrophic containment failure. Naturally. Because nothing screams “credible plot device” like reducing the sole representative of the so-called patriarchy to a bumbling idiot for easy narrative blame. Why not heap the failure of an entire facility onto the lowest rung of today’s victimhood hierarchy while you're at it?
And then there’s the door itself. Of course, containment doors—famously known for their totally realistic air vents just waiting to suck in trash, because that’s what high-security labs are all about. And naturally, anything that gets sucked in—say, a candy wrapper—would *completely* disable the entire mechanism. Because in this universe, billion-dollar safety systems are apparently engineered with the fragility of a toy from McDonald's.
Oh and his female colleague has to leave him trapped with the Distortus-rex he's just loosed so he can be the first to get eaten. As the jaws crunch I bet he's wishing had been born a dyslexic, black, trans women with a handicap. Then "she" would have waltzed through the whole movie.
Oh, and don’t even get me started on the film’s heroine, a so-called “spec-ops” soldier—because when I think elite dinosaur-slaying badass, I *naturally* picture a 125-pound Hollywood starlet with contour-perfect cheekbones and the physical presence of a yoga influencer. She’s not just surviving prehistoric death machines—she’s outwitting, and outpacing them in boots that wouldn’t survive a puddle. And of course, she’s not following the grizzled, muscle-bound male survivors—no, *they* need *her* leadership, *her* brilliance, *her* steely-eyed resolve to survive. Because in this cinematic fantasy, evolution bends to the demands of gender optics.
And of course, no modern blockbuster would be complete without a shoehorned “diverse” family to round out the studio’s DEI bingo card. Enter the token Hispanic family—dropped into the plot with all the subtlety of a corporate PR memo. They contribute nothing to the story, have no meaningful impact on the outcome, and might as well be wandering in from another film entirely. But hey, they’re there, and that’s what matters, right? Representation for representation’s sake. Go Hollywoke!

DEI and Feminist themes
Tyler's team of course has one gay and one super feminist, possibly 2nd gay character. And the heroine is always saving the men's asses. Typical woke nonsense. Stupid fun if you can overlook the unnecessary forced diversity.

125lb female bogeyman?
Chris is a bit stiff in this sequel but John Bernthal is a nice touch. He fits the bill. However this movie didn't escape the Biden-era, feminist writing disease, by insuring the unstoppable, super-serial killer-genius Anais is played by none other than a 5`5", 125lb model with spaghetti arms who can apparently fight and kill men, just like in real life, right ladies? Sure, take a bow. Tiny women are feared for their fighting prowess. This is known.

Another good show ruined.
Just watch any of the last couple seasons. The show was fantastic in the first 2-3 seasons, but then the LGBTQ, feminist tropes started making an appearance. Season 8 is super feminist / white male hate / anti white. I can no longer stand what they have done to the characters.
