"Gaslighting" is correct. This tall tale is on the order of "the Conservative media" for sheer risibility. In fact, as the author points out, nobody much is going to these Woke-fests, not even the people who might be expected to. Disney in particular is hemorrhaging money at flood rates and has amazingly managed to murder the golden geese that were Star Wars, Indiana Jones, and the original Disney legacy of animated features. That's actually pretty hard to accomplish.

The bland, tendentious fare that is the New Normal is punctuated by certain successes that manage to swim against the current of sewage. Woke turns out to be an alternative to success, not a feature of it, with Hollywood choosing Woke. What results is the cinematic equivalent of Soviet literature.

That, sir, is very well-written. Kudos!
