Brutally honest anti-woke elements
Virtually every element of this movie is designed to be a brutally honest warning of what reality would be if woke concepts actually came to prominence. Value of human life, obsession of social media, glorification of violence, destruction of the family, over-sexualized society, existentialist escapism, human trafficking, normative gender roles, big government, etc.
This movie basically spits in the face of ALL of them.

Unnecessary Feminist, Anti-Messiah Retcon
In the actual story of Dune: Chani (played by Zendaya Coleman) is a "ride-or-die" character that stands by and supports Paul Atreides no matter what decision he makes. In the movie they made an explicit choice to change the story and the character to be against him choosing the path of the Messiah. Rather than support, she pushes and influences. This coincides with a blatant anti-messiah/anti-Christ philosophy that is the cornerstone requirement of leftist/progressivist/collectivist/WOKE ideology ("there is no such thing as exceptionalism").
This was not a required change to the story, meaning it was purposeful in order to change a fundamental point of the story that conflicted with their ideology.

Purposefully one giant metaphor for transgenderism.
The director and writer came out and stated the story was written blatantly to be a subversive exploration of the mental journey of transgenderism. Imprisonment of the "default" gender (male), the introduction of the alternate gender as an antagonist, reconciliation between genders, romantic view between the conflicting gender as "self", then ultimately the "choice" between the two.

Trans Barbie and Man Hate
One of the "Barbies" is literally a mentally ill man dressed as and pretending to be a woman. Also, "Ken" is the story's real antagonist. This movie is the embodiment of the harm that wokeness can do to our daughters. Toxic ideology to deteriorate the fundamental values of non-woke in the minds of children.

Is there a "Super-Not-Woke" Score?
Blatantly points out the true evil in the world supported by the super-woke. The ultimate reason for a "woke r' not" website.

End of the world....but still dominated by gay relationships?
Destroyed an amazing game with typical woke propaganda during the end of the world.

Enjoyable but not my childhood Superman
The best of the DCU movies IMO but let's be honest, still can get out the door without a little DC white-guilt tied on it. Spoiler alert: Superman lets his anger get the better of him, murders someone, dodges responsibility, and is mopey/selfish. In other words, human and not an alien (wait, what???).
However, it does promote family values as being superior, the importance of a father figure, and sacrifice. Things severely lacking is most modern media.

DC's attempt at "toned down woke"
Not completely offensive but advise adults only (don't bring your kids). Typical formulaic woke structure: promote minorities, under privileged, and minimize benefits of normalized social structures. Villain is a while guy. The mentor is a black guy. The only stable "family"/marriage is a mixed-race couple. The only examples of maturity/responsibility are non-white. Each of these things on their own, not bad. But the point that there isn't a single socially normative element (beside the lead being white) is alarming. White kids wouldn't have anything to relate to here other than being victims or oppressors.
