If it was in the games, that's all the justification needed. HBO fed us all the stuff in Game Of Thrones, I didn't see anyone saying that they were being force fed "the incest agenda"... There was also lots of hetero sex scenes in Game of Thrones, but i don't remember anyone screaming "Hetero agenda" or whatever. It's almost like there's a double standard to this. Ffs it was just sex. There was no agenda.. Look at Hbo's Watchmen. Tell me that had no agenda...as clear as day

Boogeyman words like "Woke" need to be recognized as the empty terms they are. They don't mean anything anymore. Not to mention that Nelson Peltz is apparently at least partly responsible for whitewashing of Katara in ‘The Last Airbender’. Remember how Nicola Peltz got casted? That’s apparently because of him. Besides, at least for now, Peltz backed away from this fight, so the whole thing is kind of moot. I don't see how this has anything to do with formersamhmd's argument.

"Woke" refers to an ideology that is pushed to extreme levels to become a societal norm and not be opposed to, it is branched from social progressivism but approach and practices are done in differently, i.e. a progressive individual may suggest that a grocery store offer gluten free options to be fair with those who have Celiac Disease in the community, while a woke individual may demand the store offer nothing but gluten free options to ensure safety for anyone who might potentially have Celiac Disease.
The entertainment industry of the United States of America on the whole generally operate in very progressive places like California and New York and many involved in the making of various productions are themselves either very progressive or woke and see the entertainment they're working on as opportunities to justify, romanticize, and argue for their views to a mainstream audience. This isn't really conspiracy theory as you have some professionals like Disney animation producer, writer, and director Latoya Raveneau state in a conference call that she has a not-so-secret gay agenda that she has tried very hard to incorporate in the programs she has had involvement with even if it wasn't in service to the storytelling.
Most original 'woke' entertainments do not have much staying power in the marketplace, they usually have better legs to stand on when they are closely linked to established intellectual properties or are added in later as an original series progresses once audience trust has become firmly established.
I am not an expert on Game of Thrones, and I haven't seen The Last of Us series adaptation so I cannot comment on either, but one thing is for certain - Disney is not in great shape right now. They are bleeding money, millions of subscribers have cancelled their Disney+ subscriptions, they are investing too much money into films and television series that are not giving them the profit earnings they need, there have been many layoffs, and audience relationship is just not where it should be.

Disney losing subscribers isn't due to content, it's because they lost the rights to Cricket Games. Most of the Subscribers who canceled were Indians who only had the D+ service to watch their Cricket Games in the first place. It has nothing to do with their shows and movies.

I did not say content was the reason why Disney+ is losing subscribers.

Definitely agree with you on the interracial agenda somewhat. However the Valeryons are a sea-faring lot so they did meet other races
