Is Strange Things woke?
posted 4 years ago by PresidentBossk3562 4 years ago by PresidentBossk3562 +17 / -0

I saw someone watching this show, and it actually looks fairly interesting. I feel like though almost everytime I start a show these days it has some PC/diversity garbage that makes me disinterested. Before I start and potentially waste time, does it have any SJW themes in it?

First season, not really woke. It's not bad. I feel like a lot of the 80's stuff it does is very much like someone who didn't live then read a book about it and then put in a bunch of references based on that. I'm sure if I were to re-watch and really try to pay attention I could find some revisionist stuff. After the first season, don't bother. Not only does the show just become less enjoyable I started to notice a lot more direct woke. If I remember right one of the kids is a lesbo for example.

Honestly, I wouldn't bother and if you do just watch the first season and quit. It's self contained enough of a story to end there.

And they make it seem like her and that guy had chemistry only to “subvert expectations” and have her be a lesbian

That was very retarded. She even basically says she likes him a few episodes prior and then "akchtually I meant I wanted to be like you because this bitch I like liked you" so cringe

The original plan was for them to be together I heard but of course in the times we live let’s shoehorn in “representation”

Yeah it's very obvious they changed their mind halfway through

That was absurd when I saw it. It felt like it was a last minute change because of the woke gestspo!
