Is Season 5 woke?


S4 went pretty woke and naturally was rejected by fans. Did the creators learn their lesson?

From the cast list I can see we have two minority cops and a slew of morally shady whites. Is it a case of minorities = morally decent, whites = evil or morally dubious, or do we have some wholesome white characters too?

OP is clearly a sad, bored troll hoping to bait people. Ignore him.

You are clearly a pathetic woke bitch trying to discourage people from noticing your sick woke ideology infecting modern entertainment.

Thanks for the bump, though.

Hurr durr.

You OK there?

Why the fuck would I waste my time clicking on your retarded link? GTFO of my thread.

How's about waiting to see it before you throw the tantrum? I get that a lot of pandering has ruined a lot of entertainment, but at least watch it before you make a judgment.

reply

How’s about you go suck a dick? Firstly, I’m asking the question. Secondly, since so far only a bunch of lying wokists have answered it I have started watching it so that I can warn others and, as I suspected… it’s woke.

reply

Why are you thinking about dick sucking?

reply

WTF are you talking about?

GTFO of my thread, freak.

Update on woke-watch: I’ve now seen Eps 3 and 4 and it hasn’t improved, in fact the woke is getting subtly worse.

The villains (all white) are getting more despicable, and more conservative - with religious hypocrisy and racism. They also made John Hamm a sexual failure who can’t pleasure his wife and is into humiliating kink stuff.

They’re all unable to take down Juno Temple’s main character - a tiny woman who kicks multiple men’s asses with ease.

The heroes remain the two diverse cops, and you’ve also got two FBI sub-heroes who look… Iranian? Definitely not Anglos. One’s an empowered lesbian 🤦🏻‍♂️

Temple’s white husband is even more pathetic now, he electrocuted himself and is stuck in hospital with a fried brain 🤦🏻‍♂️ The white father figure is a useless goofball who cannot protect anyone, and in fact needs to be protected, even from himself 🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️

So… in Minnesota every single white male is either evil and/or comically pathetic, while all heroes are minorities. This is officially woke crap.

Once ESG money starts flowing, it pours.

reply

What is ESG money? Are you suggesting the creators are paid to make Fargo woke?

reply

That is precisely what I'm saying.

ESG is essentially Blackrock's and Vanguard's creation. BR and VG are the biggest investment firms in the world - by controlling the flow of investments, they also control how companies function and what rules they adhere to.

Here is the CEO of BR describing how they force companies (including hollywood) into compliance. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KwwN5kwjAtQ

Interesting.

What’s the pipeline from Blackrock/Vangaurd to the Fargo script?

reply

Well, it's morally colour/gender coded. The only good "white cis-gendered man"(TM) is weak and indecisive.
But it's well made and the story is engaging enough so I let it slide.

reply

Exactly. If the story is engaging & acted well, I can "self-filter" the subtle propaganda.

With S04, the story was not engaging & the acting was substandard, therefore the "woke" propaganda was amplified & thus intolerable. Which is why I bailed on it after only a few episodes.

Noah seems to have learned his lesson from the trainwreck of S04, & has returned to the feel of the first 2-3 seasons.

reply

It's got the basic wokeness covered i.e. minority (good) characters, suspected lesbian (the female FBI agent), confused gender (the daughter), evil white man etc.. Nothing too bothersome apart from maybe the fairly strong feminist angle I'm getting as the show has gone on.

I mean you've got this 70lb super ninja housewife kicking everyone's ass including men twice her size, escaping any situation, being able to outwit anyone who puts her in danger. I know Fargo has always played on the hard to believe activities of characters in this neck of the woods but come on! Her husband is portrayed as weak and stupid and had to be protected by her. Not the first man's life she had saved in the show either.

Then you've also got the female cop who is married to, honestly the most pathetic male character ever written, who really serves very little purpose other than to empower her when she catches him cheating and then leaves him mid-way through the show to go work for the cold-hearted mother-in-law of the runaway wife.

While the cold mother-in-law had been depicted as caring little for her daughter-in-law's welfare, there is a point in episode 9 where she, the police officer, and the runaway wife, interact over the phone and she now looks to have a change of heart for her daughter-in-law and wants to come and rescue her. Maybe she's now not so cold hearted after all as they all join forces to take on the evil white man. Can I say the words 'girl power'? I guess we'll see how it plays out in episode 10 but after the previous episode where Dot dreamt up the Linda feminist club, I wouldn't be surprised if we saw a good few female heroics in the finale just to further push that point across.

Generally I've liked the series, I think it's probably the third best after the first two, although I've not seen the fourth based on the negative feedback. I'd however say the woke is still there and at times can be annoyingly obvious, more so for the depiction of women and men.

reply

I’ve now seen Episodes 5,6 and 7… and this season is painfully woke. It’s now even worse than Season 4.

What have we got? The main villain, a Christian conservative of course, has now been revealed to be an ephebophile (molesting and grooming a 15 year old) and casually murders an innocent man. In the season’s most egregious act of wokism, he is revealed to be a Trump supporter, watching a Trump speech and agreeing. That’s how fucking vile and partisan this show is - ‘evil = Trump supporter’ 🤦🏻‍♂️

What patronising, moronic, evil fuck who crawled out of the butthole of the Democratic party wrote this shit?

He also comments on the absurdity of Dot’s daughter having a boy’s name - ‘Scotty’. Notice how the evil character is given those words, so if you’re also not onboard with gender-bending young girls then you must be evil too!

The minorty-hero-woman’s white husband is now a caricature of spineless evil - draining all her money as she works all day while he’s at home doing nothing. He complains about her insufficiently serving him as a wife should, meanwhile he’s cheating on her. The trouble is, all this just makes our brown heroine just look like a fucking moron for staying with him 🤦🏾‍♀️

White males continue to be either evil or pathetically useless, meanwhile the women are closing ranks. There’s even a bizarre commune full of abused women, and a female villain is slowly being portrayed as sympathetic as she joins the Gurl Power club 🤦🏻‍♂️

It’s constantly smashing you over the head with ‘toxic masculinity’ while celebrating womanhood. Noah Hawley is officially a dick. Fargo is the worst kind of bait-and-switch Woke TV - luring you in with those first few great seasons, only to pull off the mask and reveal itself as pure Democrat-spawned filth, raping you in the face with relentless woke propaganda, and now overt anti-Trump messaging 🤦🏻‍♂️

What a pile of shit.

reply

They even had the only white male character in the show not depicted as being weak, stupid, particularly evil, or the subservient of a woman, Ole Munch, wear a dress, as if to detract from his masculinity.

reply

I mean, he’s hardly a white role model being a psychotic neanderthal but, yes, the kilt did feminise him somewhat.

A few seasons ago I would have been happy to hear that Noah Hawley was making the new Alien TV series. Now I’m dreading it.


reply

Well yes, when you phrase it as 'role model' he wasn't exactly one, although he was adeptly getting the better of the Tillman lot. Not Dorothy of course, the slim little lady who managed to outdo all her male counterparts in the show.

I wouldn't have high hopes for an Alien TV series whoever was making it.

reply

I’m sure the last few episodes will be even more absurd, but watching tiny Juno Temple take down gigantic beefcake men who weigh 3 times as much… with no weapons… has been utterly ridiculous.

Fantastical feminist crap.

reply

I'm guessing that since you asked, you'd better avoid it. You might catch some of the wokeness and become, you know, a real person.

reply

Wokeness is racist/sexist pro-self-mutilation propaganda that turns its adherents into deranged anti-human sociopaths, if such people are what you deem ‘a real person’ then you’re insane, and have most likely been brain-fucked by the woke cult.

Since nobody answered my question, I was forced to watch the season myself. You can read about how woke it is here: https://moviechat.org/tt2802850/Fargo/65619e854407527f73b4a478/Is-Season-5-woke?reply=65ad93f7e768456330563215

reply

How can you be so good at parroting a definition of something people hilariously call wokeness, but so bad at quoting something that's written right there in front of you? What you quoted (in single quotes!) is not what I wrote.

But I'll answer the question you were so afraid of: Yeah, I guess it's what you'd call "woke" as hell. I loved it.

reply

What a pathetic attempt at gaslighting. Woke bitches like you try to deny the existence of woke in the same way that anti-semites frantically try to deny the holocaust… so that it can continue. Pathetic. Sick.

I’m sure you did love this woke piece of shit season, it was made for easily manipulated cretins.
