I haven't watched anime in a long time but it's still been sad seeing how woke the Western anime watchers have gotten.

It's not that Western Anime viewers have gone woke, it's that the SJW clique invaded the production side of things and forced the wokeness into official dubs and subs, so if you want the non-pirated versions you're stuck with their shit. The old-school weebs are still furious over Funimation and other houses' IdPol insertions changing scenes, and in some cases entire characters personalities. Unfortunately, they get dismissed as incels and other similar trash insults designed to invalidate their opinions, and the bullshit continues. Anyone who wants to get away from the Cult's garbage is basically going to be forced to bootleg the content or learn how to speak Japanese.
