What’s hilarious/infuriating about this stuff is that when it’s done poorly, it falls over by itself.

Then it gets called out with cries of “go woke, go broke”, when in reality it’s closer to “make shit, get hit”.

It's always been about the stories being garbage.

I swear Disney hires writers who can't write, which is their problem. Not to mention writing a movie as it goes leads to major mistakes. The whole woke idea is a smokescreen.
