2hrs of the same tired "dur... Woke is dumb!" joke over and over? Hard pass.
Also, cleaning a cut is woke now?
I grew up in the 80s, I'm just ten years younger than Bill Burr, and I can't get on board with this sort of plot at all.
As if society passed these people by, and they're just now discovering decades of social evolution.
These characters haven't watched the news, used social media, or seen a movie in 20 years? Come on.
Not a single time did anybody say "woke" in the trailer, yet somehow you inserted it in there and built up an entire narrative to argue against. I think this is the perfect example of a straw man.
