Mildly Woke

What is this?

The show examines Mexican society and government without overtly undermining traditional values. Religion, family, and masculinity are depicted through their historical context, without the usual modern subversions or heavy-handed ideological rewriting.

While the government is cast in a critical light, multiple viewpoints are presented, including dissenters and loyalists. It doesn’t devolve into stereotypical villainization of tradition or present ideological uniformity.
