Speaking only as a reader, I've noticed that the vast majority of woke insanity infests the YA novels the heaviest, and then the sci-fi and fantasy segment; the latter more so than the former, probably because it's more open to actual magical faggots and all of that UwU extra-most-specialest half-vampire/half-dragon/half-werewolf/half-faerie, unicornkin bullshit.

That's not to say I haven't seen it crop up in other genres, but those aforementioned three are (currently) the big offenders. So if you're writing in one of those, you'll probably have to deal with it at some point. Just remember this, if you get published and someone gets butthurt about your material, do not engage them. No apologies, no explanations, no justifications, NOTHING. And don't acknowledge any headcanon bullshit that a reader comes up with, either. Rowling did that shit, and then the smoothbrains turned on her as soon as their headcanon drifted off into other things and she didn't back it.

Never engage them in any way seems like good advice. Theres no winning against people who live to find offensive in everything
