HBO's latest Game of Thrones spinoff "A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms" is making waves not for what it includes, but for what it deliberately leaves out – the woke messaging that has poisoned nearly every piece of entertainment coming out of Hollywood these days.
But here's the hard truth, Patriots: simply being "non-woke" isn't the victory lap some conservatives think it is.
While millions of Americans are celebrating any piece of pop culture that doesn't lecture them about pronouns or climate change, cultural critics are asking a bigger question: Why are we settling for scraps when we should be demanding entertainment that actually reflects our values?
The 'Non-Woke' Trap
"A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms" might not push radical gender ideology or anti-American propaganda, but it's essentially cultural Switzerland – neutral territory that refuses to take a stand either way. And that's exactly the problem.
For too long, conservatives have been so beaten down by Hollywood's relentless woke assault that we've lowered our standards. We're applauding shows simply for NOT attacking our beliefs, rather than demanding content that actually celebrates them.
"We've been so starved for non-hostile entertainment that we're treating basic neutrality like a Christmas miracle," one cultural commentator noted.
This is what happens when the entertainment industrial complex spends years gaslighting half the country. We become grateful for crumbs instead of demanding the full meal.
What America Really Needs
Real cultural change doesn't come from avoiding woke talking points – it comes from boldly promoting the values that built this great nation. Family. Faith. Freedom. Individual responsibility. The Constitution.
President Trump's second term has shown us what happens when conservatives stop playing defense and start going on offense. Maybe it's time our entertainment followed suit.
The question isn't whether Hollywood can avoid being woke for 60 minutes. The question is: when will they start creating content that actually honors the America First movement that just delivered the most decisive political victory in generations?
Patriots deserve better than "non-woke." We deserve unapologetically American.
