All of this. I’m so tired of people who build their entire identities around being anti- pretending to be ignorant of the following:

  1. Much of the entertainment they enjoyed when they were young was already “woke” by the standards of the time, and often of the present day too.

  2. There is no “woke” conspiracy suppressing such entertainment today. Every possible viewpoint is present somewhere in the enormous variety of movies and TV available at the click of a button. If any viewpoint gets short shrift, it’s “wokeness” as opposed to the endless stream of Bigger! Louder! Stupider! chock-full of utterly predictable stereotypes.

  3. They, not the “woke” crowd, are the ones who would absolutely melt down if the classics they liked when they were younger and more open-minded were coming out today, word for word and scene for scene.

Or hell, maybe they’re not pretending, except to themselves. It’s amazing how people can edit their own memories.

Anyone who is openly anti-woke, is pro-racist.
