It would have no one watching it, period. Can't even get people to be upset that they were lied to, because the consumers never had hope for it anyway, and the cultists don't actually consume.
100% disagree. If a show was marketed as woke feminist idiocy but ended up being legitimately based, word would spread like wildfire and everyone would watch it.
For proof of this, see Far Cry 5. When it first was announced, it looked like, and the media talked about it as if, it was going to be "Trump Supporter Killer 2018." When the game actually dropped, it turned out the Cult who were the bad guys were actually just generally evil and their leader made references that could be take as Anti-Trump, and then most of the Good Guys consisted of Redneck Montanans, a Libertarian Militia, and even even some people who called the Cult "Hippies" and "Libtards."
Que the media suddenly hating the game, while people who may not have gotten it before picking it up.
Then the ultimate (but predictable at that moment, after FC4) twist was the cult was right about the apocalypse and also that the proper course of action was to just leave them alone.
Or, just imagine that any one of the recent set of cardboard cutout stunning and brave protagonists were dropped in a situation where the entire universe did not tie itself in knots to reinforce the feminist narrative. That'd be interesting to watch.
Yeah these kinds of series are flags for people to wave in the culture war, not actually enjoy. Just like a flag, you use it to denote your own territory.
