    Still no, because woke is something specific to the ideal of making people aware of real injustices.

    Your original statement equates to “this is a deliberate attempt to push an agenda”

    Even with replacing propaganda you still end up with “this promotes making people aware of real issues”. Which implies 1 - an acknowledgement of the fact that they’re real issues depicted (which such people usually contest) and 2 - that the author was aware of such issues in their effort to depict these things realistically.

    In the end we all know that what they’re saying is “this shows me something that I don’t like because it doesn’t fit with my vision of the world”

    People can be wrong about intent and about content, but people can’t be wrong about how it affects them and what messages they receive.
