All sounds very woke. Won't be watching.

It’s pretty entertaining. And how is a show that has absolutely zero gay characters in it woke?

I don't know why the right is scared to death of "woke". Most often they are bully boys, confident in what they feel is right. But let a woman be the lead actor in a move or TV show, let a black person be the lead in a movie or TV show, let a gay person be in a movie or TV show, and they become hysterical. "Woke" seems to have morphed into a "thing", an object of actual physical, touchable, solid object. Diversity also seems to be a scary and awful thing (when, in fact, we are all descendants of a culture of different origin. Big strong people from the right become afraid of these things. I don't understand why.

@ Gene Hennigh I don't think you have to be on the "right" to find "woke" entertainment annoying and I think people who dislike "woke" entertainment have been enjoying Black and female performers for many years, This leaves you with a kind of mystery. Can you solve it?
