Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

Fortunes of War puts story and character ahead of any ideological message. The plot centers on historical events, with characters driven by personal motives, flaws, and period-appropriate contexts. Representation matches the 1930s/40s settings, without inserting modern identity politics.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

Traditional values such as marriage, duty, and patriotism are depicted without mockery. While some characters express doubts or unconventional views, these are handled as individual struggles, not broad commentary against traditions or masculinity.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

There is lively debate and a range of views among characters regarding politics, war, and morality, reflecting the real diversity of the era rather than pushing one ideology. Alternatives aren't villainized or reduced to caricature.
