I see a lot of the trends you are seeing, but I don’t think a conspiracy is necessary to explain this stuff. All I think you need is a combination of fiat money and values-based filtering of the white collar elite class.
The money being fake and created via debt contributes to the arms race in entertainment. Triple-A games and movies cost hundreds of millions of dollars, and there are intense ad budgets for any game on the market. This means games and movies can only be created by massively wealthy corporations.
Giant corporations are all run by the kind of people who are obsequious and agreeable. You have to be, to get along in these places. The selection criteria for advancement rule out anyone willing to point out that the emperor is naked, as well as anyone with bold original ideas because these tend to make people uncomfortable.
So what’s happening, I think, is an arms race in entertainment concentrates production and as budgets in giant companies which by their nature will lean woke because they are inherently collective enterprises and because the best way to ignore wealth inequality is to focus obsessively on the kinds of diversity that doesn’t really threaten the oligarch class.
The good news here is that yes the culture is rotten, and yes we need real change. Wokism acts like a forest fire, and most of what it kills was going to die anyhow. This includes wokism itself! Ideals like the hero’s journey simply can’t die, they are too deeply rooted in the human psyche. So what has happened, IMO, is that the dead versions of these myths have died, and soon wokism will burn itself out; what rises from the ashes will be reincarnations of the greatest legends of our ancestors. Not rehashings of the past, but newly integrated myths which touch the human soul even deeper because they’ve had more generations of history upon which to reflect and integrate.
The best days of our culture are ahead of us. All things that can be burned will be - and what shall remain is that which is indestructible.

It's both.
Beware of binary thinking, it served us well in the forest (is there a sabretooth in the bushes or not?) but these days, not so much.
Great article! I have wondered for a while how 'The Party' would deal with 'old' media that overwhelmingly shows that standing up for what's right against the angry mob is the brave thing to do. I like to joke that if this scene were shot today, the crowd would pull the old man down and berate him for not following 'the rules.'
I was close to passing right over this article because I’m not a gamer…so doesn’t apply…or so I thought. I never really considered the gaming industry…apparently this radical leftist nonsense is everywhere! It’s creeping it’s way into all the cracks and crevices in such a slow and insidious nature, so that people tend to not even notice the gradual changes. But as you allude to, the vigor propelling the leftist movement is gaining momentum and the ideologies are becoming too extreme to ignore. Great article…really makes you think about the bigger picture.
Watch the debate between Zizek and Peterson and see how the terms are being misused by these fake leftists.... Heck even the con-vid situation clearly showed that the current "left" doesn't care about civil rights....
Neoliberalism took the name of "left" but is really a corporatist drive, pro war, pro banks, pro corporations, and so on...
Look back at the lefties before 911.... They were nothing like this...
Did you know that the ultra leftist outfit the Pentagon death machine is a major creator, player and sponsor of many of these anti-life warfare video games - because they are seen as an excellent recruiting tool for the carnage machine.
And speaking of the world-wide "culture" of death and the collective psychosis promoted by Pentagon death machine which now patterns and controls every aspect of human culture why not check out this website which involves the actions and intentions of millions of living feeling breathing human beings, very few of which would have anything to do with the "culture" of death purveyed by these video games.
The Pentagon death machine is of course the leading purveyor of the "cancel culture" which now threatens the termination of life on this planet. Such has been signalled by the fact that the Doomsday Clock has recently been moved much closer to the end-time meltdown of human culture and the bio-sphere too.
All in all the dreaded wokism has nothing whatsoever to do with the creation, empowerment and continuing growth of this collective psychosis.
The internet is the problem.
That’s silly 😜
Great read. Yes video games seem to be coerced breeding grounds for antisocial woke messaging. Glad increasing numbers are becoming aware of this.

Such a thesis is garbage all-the-way-down!
I dunno
"The money being fake and created via debt contributes to the arms race in entertainment."
Is true for all corporations that reach a certain size, they just borrow forever and never pay it off.

This is not socialism, but neoliberalism.
