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

Trial 4 is highly committed to telling its story through a social justice lens, often sidelining narrative nuance or a diversity of viewpoints in favor of ideological emphasis. It’s a prime example of the modern, highly woke documentary series.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Hyper Woke

What is this?

The show heavily foregrounds themes of systemic racism and injustice, appearing to prioritize these points over individual character complexity or nuance. The subject's racial identity and the institution's alleged biases are the constant focus, sometimes at the expense of a more subtle or balanced presentation.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Hyper Woke

What is this?

Traditional institutions, law enforcement, the legal system, and elements of social order, are presented almost exclusively in a critical light. There's a strong sense of moral indictment against established structures, with little space for the possibility of good faith or virtue among them.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Hyper Woke

What is this?

Alternative perspectives, such as trust in the justice system or different social critiques, are given little to no airtime. The narrative is notably one-sided, fostering the impression that there is only one acceptable interpretation of events.
