I watched a recap and besides being "woke" it looks kinda bad.

It goes a bit further than that. Compare to the Reeves Superman meeting the recording of his father.

It's a message of hope, to remember what and who they were, for Superman to serve as a beacon of justice and above all else a plea to not use his great power to force his will on humanity.
Now compare to the Cavill Superman meeting his father scene.

A lot bleaker, it paints Krypton more as a technocratic dystopia, but it was still a message of hope, that Superman again acts as a beacon, not as a ruler.
Now, in this new one, the message of "conquer Earth and breed their women" was leaked by Lex Luthor on live TV, and there's glitches that make it seem like it was altered. So if there's a sequel it could very well be explained it's Fake News doctored by Luthor to turn the public against Superman, which is 100% something he would do. But that wasn't resolved in this movie, and all the shill geek sites are reporting it as matter of fact.
