Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Mildly Woke

What is this?

'Truckers, Inc.' mostly focuses on relatable, blue-collar characters facing everyday problems. Casting and character arcs prioritize personality, skill, and real-world challenges over ticking identity boxes. The show doesn't seem to place ideology above narrative, and character development feels earned, not forced.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Mildly Woke

What is this?

The series respectfully depicts traditional occupations, family bonds, and masculinity. It doesn't go out of its way to mock or undermine these cultural touchstones; if anything, it highlights their importance and grit in the modern world, with only rare winks to current year trends.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

There is a plurality of views across the characters, with various ideologies and beliefs portrayed sincerely. Traditional perspectives aren't villainized, if anything, they're normalized and given the benefit of the doubt, making the show refreshingly non-woke for its era.
