I've been very anti-modern entertainment for the past few years or so: don't watch cable or Netflix, don't go to the movies (last new movie I saw was Joker), don't read modern literature, etc. However, I still use the internet, and watch YouTube -- for as long as they let neutral and right-wing creators on the platform, so not for much longer I'm sure -- and I finally got around to watching clips of Cobra Kai.
From the moment I saw footage mocking politically correct speech, I got curious. One YouTube Premium trial and two seasons later, and I found Cobra Kai to be exactly the show we needed, one that rejects Leftist politics. It mocks gender neutrality, it mocks cultural appropriation whiners, it makes fun of a white guy interrupting a karate tournament to preach about equality, and it did this across three seasons.
I'm curious if this is going to keep going, because the show is on Netflix now, and they approved a fourth season. So, while I expect the Lefties to try and worm their way into future episodes, if you need a show that serves to entertain and not indoctrinate, Cobra Kai Seasons 1 - 3 has my stamp of approval.
Care to specify?
The wokest thing I can think of is Tory and Sam fighting against and beating boys their age, at their relative size or larger.
The latter is skilled from years of karate instruction, so it's relatively understandable, but even that was never so overt that it broke my suspension of disbelief.
Honestly, I can't remember any specific scenes or details; like I said, it's entirely possible I've just become so allergic to wokeness, I'm starting to see it where there's none.
I feel that way for a lot of things myself, so I know where you're coming from.
It doesn't help that the indoctrination has been turned up to 11 in recent times, so it's really becoming hard to see what's truly "woke" and when I'm just jumping at shadows.
Season 2 sucks because the old sensei from the movies is a terrible character for a show focused on nuance and depth. What made the first season work is that it didn't have any "villains" in the traditional sense. Both Danny and Johnny had their virtues and faults, and the problem between them stemmed from pride and insecurity more than any genuine dislike or even animosity for the other. It was smart and well-written.
Reintroducing that pan-faced guy that I don't remember the name of threw off the entire dynamic of the show. Suddenly you have a traditional villain with traditional villain schemes, and the whole show became paint-by-numbers because of it. I couldn't even finish the second season because it just became so utterly boring.
They flesh him out more in season three to at least try to make his motivations understandable and less cartoonish.
