They certainly adopt rhetoric from the left which helps them get elected, then enact exclusively right-wing policies when they actually have power, sure. Fascists usually use populist rhetoric to get into power but then they never do anything to actually reduce inequality (because that would be the opposite of fascism).

As in because the pendulum swings from the far left to the far right? Or were you just mistakenly conflating those two completely opposite political theories?

That’s cool, you should specify from the onset that your experience comes from a place outside of the actual country where the “woke” culture war originated and is mainly happening, and you should still link stats to demonstrate that the majority of people there have a misunderstanding of what the word means like you claimed. Claims made without evidence can be dismissed without evidence, and most people in the country driving the “woke” culture war still know what the word means.

No it doesn’t. It means the same thing to most people that it has always meant.

The right just has so much insane propaganda about it that you’ve been convinced most people fell for it, which they haven’t.

I’m not sure how to do spoilers so spoiler warning for anyone reading.

That isn’t how the Ken revolution ends. It ends by saying that they will eventually get as much rights as women have in the real world, again emphasizing the fact that women do not have equal rights or opportunities to men and that society should fix that (which is the literal definition of woke). It ends by saying “progress is being made, will continue to be made, and ought to continue to be made” not by maintaining the status quo. It seems like you missed just a few extremely crucial lines in the movie and that led you to this wrong conclusion that the movie is somehow not woke or not leftist, which it undeniably is.

The movie was definitely woke in the traditional meaning of the word before conservatives tried (and failed) to change it. Not only was it a very feminist movie, they also took specific aim at Citizens United and capitalism broadly, which makes it a squarely, unambiguously left-leaning movie.

For real, the state is saved by having Chicago in it, otherwise it’d be as much of a shithole state as the surrounding ones.

Mary Miller comes to mind. Illinois Nazis man.

This couldn’t be a more astroturfed comment if it tried. This reads like it came directly from the mouth of Steve Bannon.

Almost all TV media is left wing. Most online media is left wing. Social media is left wing.

Literally none of this is true. The only universe this is true in is the one where anything left of fascism is “left wing.”
