Diversity doesn’t mean it’s woke. It’s actually a good use of diversity, without pushing it and political correctness. It’s just good because it’s part of the story. Not because the show creators wanted to push 1000 sexualities and act like all non-white people are saints and being white must be equated with being a Nazi.

Yep, the woke would consider a cast made up of 100% black transwomen diverse. They don't use words the same way as everyone else.

People forget that diversity was originally pushed because intellectual diversity was shown to help businesses make more money, not because it's good for individuals and not because of representation.

Which makes sense, different people might approach things from a novel angle. If everyone is thinking the same you might not get that angle and you could miss out.
