In a free society the right to critique art is essential and protected speech. These reviews reflect personal opinions and not statements of fact.

What We Think

Gaslit takes a heavily modernized slant on real history, emphasizing identity politics and progressive revisionism over balanced storytelling. Expect a consistent tilt toward woke themes, with little room for genuine alternative viewpoints.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Woke

What is this?

Gaslit appears to focus extensively on women and minority voices in the Watergate era, placing a heavy narrative emphasis on identity and victimhood. While this may offer a unique take, it could be seen as sidelining character complexity and historical nuance for contemporary relevance.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Hyper Woke

What is this?

The series often reframes traditional authority, masculinity, and family dynamics as sources of toxicity or backwardness. Religion and established norms get little sympathy, and instead, the plot highlights those challenging the status quo as morally superior.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Hyper Woke

What is this?

Alternative perspectives, especially more traditional or non-progressive ones, are typically depicted negatively or given little depth. The show’s worldview is fairly uniform, with dissenting ideas often caricatured rather than sincerely engaged.
