Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

Farmer Boy is a no-nonsense portrayal of farm life, focused on skill, hard work, and family values. Characters are developed through their actions and choices, not through modern diversity checklists or ideological insertions. There's essentially no forced representation at play here, it's set in 19th-century rural America.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

This book reveres traditional family structures, farming, religion, and self-reliance. Masculinity and femininity are depicted according to the era's norms, with no subversive jabs or revisionism. If anything, it might trigger the woke crowd more than the other way around.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

Alternative lifestyles, secularism, and contemporary identity politics are completely absent. The book upholds a monolithic traditional worldview, but that’s expected for the time, and certainly not 'woke' monoculture. No mockery of alternatives; they're just not addressed at all.
