What We Think

GTA V is about equal-opportunity satire, gleefully poking fun at everyone. Its focus is chaos and comedy, not ideological sermonizing. Definitely non-woke by modern standards.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

Grand Theft Auto V’s narrative preference is mayhem over moralizing. While the cast is mostly straight white males, their backgrounds serve the story’s gritty satire rather than as ideological statements. The game leans on flawed, outrageous personalities, prioritizing humor and chaos over representation checklists.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Mildly Woke

What is this?

GTA V takes potshots at all sides but doesn’t actively sabotage tradition or celebrate woke ideology. Masculinity, family, and vice are portrayed satirically, though often exaggerated for comedic effect. The game mocks everyone, which can ruffle feathers, but it rarely lectures or panders ideologically.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

The game mocks progressives, conservatives, and everyone in between, no sacred cows. There are parodies of all viewpoints, which means the ideological landscape is anything but uniform. Little is off-limits and alternative perspectives aren’t villainized, just lampooned.
