What We Think

The Avengers: United They Stand is about as non-woke as you can get for a late '90s cartoon. Minimal forced diversity, no subversion of traditional values, and no ideological grandstanding, it’s just superhero fun.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

The show largely sticks to superhero archetypes and classic comic book storytelling. While there is some gender and ethnic diversity on the team (e.g., Tigra and Falcon), it doesn't feel forced or shoehorned in for ideological reasons. Characters are defined more by their roles and struggles than their identities.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

Traditional values like heroism, teamwork, and family are presented in a straightforward, non-cynical way. Masculinity and femininity are treated fairly. There’s little evidence of mocking tradition or rewriting core cultural concepts, if anything, it’s rather old-school by modern standards.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

The show avoids heavy-handed messaging, moral lectures, or one-sided portrayals of alternative viewpoints. Villains are comic-book bad guys, not thinly-veiled stand-ins for political adversaries. Overall, it’s pretty pluralistic and sticks to adventure and action.
