Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

The series presents the harsh realities of Bolshevik and Soviet history, including religious persecution and authoritarianism, but does so to reflect historical fact, not to subvert traditional values today. There's no modern agenda to undermine religion, family, or traditional gender roles.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

While the show is critical of Stalin and the Soviet regime, it largely avoids pushing any contemporary ideological narrative, focusing instead on historical events and established facts. There is minimal evidence of caricaturing alternative worldviews for modern ideological purposes.
