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

Siren swims straight into modern ideological waters: diversity and role subversion are on display and traditional values get the cold shoulder. It isn’t the wokest show on the block, but it makes sure you know which way the current flows.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Woke

What is this?

Siren features diverse casting and gender role inversions typical of “woke” storytelling, with a hyper-capable female lead. The narrative occasionally elevates identity over deeper character development or realism, but it still maintains enough plot focus not to feel entirely like a delivery device for messaging.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Hyper Woke

What is this?

Traditional family, masculinity, and cultural norms are frequently questioned or recast, with recurring subversion of expected roles and values. Environmental and social issues often override classic morality or folklore, reflecting modern ideological trends over traditional roots.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Woke

What is this?

Alternative perspectives or ‘traditional’ worldviews rarely emerge as anything other than background noise, and when addressed, tend to be caricatured or linked to antagonists. There’s little meaningful pluralism or good-faith debate of ideas.
