Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

Hungarian Folktales sticks closely to traditional storytelling, focusing on folklore, myth, and time-honored character types. There's little to no evidence of modern ideological priorities interfering with the narrative or character casting; it's all about the tales themselves.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

The show reveres local traditions, folklore, religion, and family structures, presenting them earnestly rather than attempting revisionism or undermining them. In fact, it serves as a cultural time capsule, hardly what most would call "woke."

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

There's minimal discussion of modern ideological themes. The stories present traditional values without caricaturing dissenters or shoehorning in twenty-first-century debates, simply reflecting the worldview of Hungarian folklore itself.
