I have the same attitude towards anything with a female protagonist created after about 2014.
Every creator knows the score; if your protagonist is female, then the radical leftists will put your character under a woke microscope, determine if it meets specifications, and destroy you if it doesn't.
Ergo, if you're not hearing about how problematic a female protagonist is, then that female protagonist must meet the approval of radical leftists - and I have no interest in anything that meets with the approval of leftists.
So now I straight up avoid any media with female protagonists. Saves me the time and effort of discovering the same thing over and over again: that female protags in current year are a near-100% indicator for woke garbage.
Didn't used to be this way. I will gladly engage with female-led media pre-2015 or so. A lot of good media falls into that category. But new media, for me, must start with a male protagonist. Because that's one of the surest signs that it isn't leftist garbage.
You're generally safe with animu big bob waifubait, at least, until the localizers are done their hatchet-job with it.
