Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

The show doesn’t aggressively undermine family, religion, or traditional masculinity. It relies on period-appropriate dynamics and themes, without overtly subverting gender roles or rewriting historical context to make ideological points.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Mildly Woke

What is this?

While mainstream in its moral worldview, dissenting or traditional perspectives aren’t especially mocked or villainized. There’s no overwhelming ideological slant that’s imposed; characters have their flaws and complexities.
