Game of Thrones
tv·TV-MA·Apr 17, 2011·
Game of Thrones: Ultra-low 2/10 wokeness. Book-faithful epic delivers raw power struggles, brutal wars, and flawed heroes without DEI, race-swaps, or political lectures—pure story-driven entertainment.
Game of Thrones is a gritty medieval fantasy epic set in the continents of Westeros and Essos, chronicling brutal power struggles, family betrayals, wars, conquests, and existential threats like dragons and the undead, all drawn faithfully from George R.R.
Martin's source material. The series features a predominantly white British and Irish cast that organically matches the books' demographics, with no race-swapping, gender alterations, or forced DEI insertions, allowing themes of raw politics, violence, incest, and survival to dominate without overt social justice lectures, identity politics, or critiques of systemic issues. Strong female characters like Cersei, Daenerys, Arya, and Sansa exhibit agency through cunning ambition and realistic flaws rather than empowerment anthems, contributing to consistently low wokeness scores (1-3/10) across seasons, as reception praised narrative purity and spectacle while decrying only pacing, violence, or writing flaws—not progressive intrusions.
Methodology: Each score synthesizes audience discourse, critic and aggregator reception, and press coverage — weighed against the work itself, not any single source.

Outrageous show. Right from the first episode, we are introduced to the incestuous couple of a brother and sister who have children together. Producers really think out society is so rotten it would allow rooting for such disgusting characters. Even in this wokeometer review "Cercei" (what a stupid name) is described as a strong female character, while in truth she is just an evil cuckolding woman, whos one good and only feature is her jaw. George Martin and his devilish series is a scourge on the dying body of once greatest Western Civilization. And I hope we as a society recognize that if something is popular and or God forbid "well written" that doesn't mean we should endorse that. Good writing must be Christian and good. It shouldn't be this fetishistic evil fantasy crap that all of us suddenly thought was alright because our society has lost it's mind. And don't let me get started on Daenerys...
