I'm scared to ask this, but how is it woke? What's the latest twisted mentality up to at Disney or whoever produced it?

Just because they race swapped a ginger character for an African American does not make it woke. Race swap virtue signalling is kinda like the opposite of woke. Instead of creating an original black character they are just changing red head characters into black characters. If they created a whole new movie with an original black character and made the movie about how they overcome societal norms and fight against the government that movie would be woke. But simply swapping someone's race(and only swapping the race of red headed characters) isn't woke at all.
