What We Think

A nearly non-woke show. ‘Pirate Gold of Adak Island’ is focused on adventure and good storytelling rather than messaging. One of the rare examples where the agenda is simply treasure hunting, refreshing, to say the least.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

The show focuses on the classic treasure-hunt format rather than preaching ideology or shoehorning in contemporary issues. Character backgrounds, including gender and race, seem incidental rather than highlighted for political points. There’s little evidence of the story being bent out of shape to check diversity boxes.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

There is no apparent push against traditional values, masculinity, or historical context. It’s all about the adventure, history, and a good old-fashioned hunt for gold, with no modern moralizing.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

The series keeps its focus squarely on the treasure hunt. No overt political messaging, no lectures about current social issues. It appeals to a broad audience and doesn’t villainize traditional perspectives or adopt an ideological monoculture.
