Various nuggets of interest in this survey of Gen Z and millennials
Red flags come in all sizes. A potentially small one is: “I’m not willing to sit through a dumb but harmless movie even though my partner wants to see it.”
A bigger red flag would be “I refuse to see The Barbie Movie because it’s woke!!!”
Sorry if I’m out of the loop but how the fuck is a girls children movie in anyway woke?
Well, there’s a certain subset of loud, gullible cretins out there that apply the following tests to see if something is “woke” and they should hate it:
- Does it espouse or support anything that’s not hardcore, regressive social “conservatism”? E.g “LGBT people exist” or “sexism is bad.”
- Do “the libs” (real or imaginary) like it?
If the answer to any of those 2 questions is “yes”: the thing in question is “woke”. The Barbie Movie is 2 yeses … so apparently it’s “extra woke”.
