It's weird how the anti-wokesters grandfather older media in as acceptable despite obvious "woke" elements.
Star Wars was anti-fascist. Blazing Saddles was anti-racist. The Matrix was transgender allegory. Terminator 2 made a cop the villain. Don't get me started on conservative Rage Against the Machine fans. And, of course, can't forget about Star Trek. They love George Carlin even though he would have hated them. Sure, he said Andrew Dice Clay can say what he wants and shouldn't be censored, but then criticized him for always punching down.
The best media has always been a progressive reflection of the time period it was created in. They just never consumed it with their hyper-analytical woke glasses.
If they would just let go of that they could start enjoying shit again.
They could watch episode 3 of The Last of Us and cry with the rest of us as Ron Swanson builds deathtraps for zombies, electrocutes interlopers, giggles at strawberries, and has hairy gay sex.
Don't they miss loving things?
Isn't loving things so much more satisfying than finding nitpicky reasons to hate things?
