the mistake there is that the culture war is politics and politics is about falling in line. grifters are always on the lookout to see wether a) a given piece of media is popular (and therefore not woke); or b) if every other grifter agrees its woke (and it's not that popular). if you're out here calling everything under the sun woke, you become a joke that doesn't know where the wind blows.

Also I like how they consider singular they in ANY context woke. Even in games where it's just done to refer to the player neutrally so they can self-insert
