Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

There are no overt attempts to undermine family, religion, or tradition. School life, innocent romance, and adolescent awkwardness are front and center, masculinity, femininity, and relationships are portrayed in a normal, relatable way, with no soapbox moments or preachiness detected.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?
