I’m have some of the comic books but haven’t watched the show. I guess I’m tired of hero deconstruction at the moment. Is the show really woke? I know there was a gender swap
It's undeniably woke, with just a touch of Amazon flexing on wokies for being their bottom bitches without wokies realizing it. That little flex has got some moderate conservatives and libertarian types to defend it, but it's ultimately still discharge from the cultural rot.
The bit that pokes fun at progs is that the evil mega corp gets away with being an evil mega corp by pandering to progs. It's not very deep, since it doesn't attack actual prog values, and it doesn't explicitly go into how progs are retarded, it's just an implied part of the world.
The irony is that the flexing is self-inflicted, because the production staff themselves are true believers. They don't think they're serfs for Lord Bezos, even while creating a product where one of the pillars holding up any suspension of disbelief is that progs are easily-manipulated retards.
The actors and producers are screaming because moderates laughing at how the show (barely) pokes fun at progs is signaling that The Boys isn't prog propaganda, when that was the staff's intent, so they have to counter-signal that.
Yeah, the few nods they make to the other side seem like they are just accidents, like the writers forgot the point they were making. For instance, at one point they have the media refer to stuff that Starlight (Erin Moriarty's character) is saying as "unfounded conspiracy theories", when the audience knows it's true and besides, Starlight is one of the few "good" characters on the show.

I watched the first season. It was okay. Not great but not horrible. I haven't watched season 2 or 3 because of the things I heard about it.
