Margot Robbie has revealed she is taking a short break from acting to focus on producing because "everybody is probably sick" of the sight of her after last summer's Barbie movie.
Acceptance and popularizing of previously stigmatized groups of people and cultures who underwent many social injustices, such as people of a different race, neurodivergants, or LGBTQ to name a few.
A few years ago media really started to shoehorn the culture into script writing to the point a show or movie, rather than just telling a story, made it a platform for culture. While I appreciated that these groups were gaining acceptance, I felt it could too much too soon, and the more closed-minded people would just close off even more.

lol what? I need you to cite some examples bud.
To refute your premise - filmmaking has always about injecting messages into motion pictures. Remember when “It’s a wonderful life” was investigated by the FBI for being ‘anticapitalist’? Silkwood and Erin Brockovich were all about holding the powerful to account bud. It’s part of cinema to use the medium to hold the powerful accountable, to illustrate the fucked up things our society is doing. This isn’t new.
Sounds like we shouldn’t cater to closed-minded people then. You can’t change people that don’t want to change, and if they want to be wrong, that’s on them.
Barbie is a decent movie with the message that women are people and to treat them like people and not play things. I wouldn’t even call that your definition of woke. Now, if the movie started calling for women’s hygiene products to be free and had Barbie stealing that shit from Walmart and Target and doling it out to the poor, we can start talking.
Could you define woke?
Narrator: they can’t
Opposite of slept.
