Netflix fires top Woke creative leaders over insufficient "customer engagement" - Tiger1983 - 10-20-2026 06:45 AM
Netflix has a plethora of Woke programing and storylines that does not attract eyeballs and, consequently, their "customer engagement" metric has suffered and their stock has crashed 40% in the past year. Now they are trying to fix the problem.

We dropped Netflix for the very reason programs sucked. We are thinking of the same for Hulu. ABC and Disney shows suck.

The financials, and YoY revenue growth, do not seem to support them "going broke".

Dems prefer to function from the brainstem. Unfortunately for them, reality does not recognize the fantasy world they construct. The cold, hard truth is drastic measures were required because Netflix lost 40% stock value in the last year because customers want something else besides Woke offal.

Some of you lads seem as agitated by wokeism as I am irritated by my hemorrhoid issues.

Everyone should be agitated by wokism. Its dangerous and destructive and a big part of what is happening in France and Europe.
Its a cancer that is eating western society.
Not enough people being upset about it is the big problem over there.

It’s weird, it seems like a an Indian woman born in England who also lived in an ethnic Indian community in Zambia for a while, whose parent illegally migrated here and got deported before (unfortunately) being let back in, and raised in LA would be the perfect barometer of what normal Americans want to watch.
Of course she isn’t, but what does Netflix really care about American audiences when there is so much more money to be made worldwide? We are a drop in the bucket compared to international markets.
But people keep shelling out their money to woke companies and supporting exactly what they are pitching because they are afraid of either not being entertained for a few moments of their lives, or worse, being considered unhip because they aren’t up on the latest streaming sensation.
And that’s why people drop cable and start spending just as much on every streaming subscription in existence- because they are don’t know what else to do with themselves.
Netflix never would have gotten this way if people hadn’t just kept subscribing for so long. When you vote with your pocket book, having more money than sense is a sure way to muddy the waters of what you’re voting for.
If it comes down to taking a real stand or not having the latest toy/gadget/service, most Americans get it wrong 90% of the time.

Harmful woke-ism (and you give the ultimate example) is terribly concerning, E-Revenge. I agree fully.
But various lesser examples of woke-ism — and that irritate some posters — I just shrug it off. There are folks posting on this board who might get agitated if I said, "I think the black naming culture is absurd in many respects. But I try to be understanding of people's cultural and historical considerations and backgrounds. If black parents want to give their children insane names, I respect their right to do so." That is an example of me trying to be "woke" in a positive way.
I want to be "woke" in the sense that I want to be aware of social injustice — including, for example, when white men are unfairly stereotyped and treated with bias. Truly woke people, including white liberals and liberals of color, should be consistent and contend that we should be alert to ALL social injustice, including against whites (and, particularly, conservative/libertarian white men). Fully and consistently woke is "positive woke." If liberals took that approach (and essentially zero do or ever will) the crusty old white men on this board would be less cantankerous about the subject.
The woke-ism that is driving the changes in Western culture — particularly with Islam — is a disaster waiting to happen. That type woke is brutalizing us. No doubt. It is a cancer. I strongly agree with you.

this world has become nothing but a joke festival ... just like what too many consider 'news' these days ... it's a WTF moment with every linky...
I can't figgle out why I've grown tired (once again) of what too many find impo®t(a)ent ... once the fonzies become stale, even the sharks fail to jump after the chum...

There is no worthy aspect of Wokism. It is nothing but hateful grievance saturation, racism, divisiveness, and anti-semitism mainly promoted by AWFUL's looking for absolution, socialists, communists, and grifters.

Netflix sucks.
So do all leftists.
They ruin everything and blame the right for it.

The problem with woke is that, by its very nature, it excludes many groups of non-black people.
As we know, woke means being alert, aware and attentive to social and racial injustice. In a general sense ... a good thing.
Sadly, woke is not applied consistently, fairly and without ethnic, racial and political bias.
Let's say, hypothetically, I am assaulted by a gang of black youth just because I'm a white libertarian man who these young men view as their "enemy.". And following the attack, liberal woke-centric blacks say this: "This is an outrage. Bill Dazzle was attacked for no reason other than who is is. This is a hate crime. It is an injustice."
That type reaction would be a example of "helpful woke." Sadly, our nation is too polarized to handle social and racial injustice in a fair-minded and consistent way.

Let's say, hypothetically, I am gang raped by the cast of The View just because I'm a white man who these women view as their "enemy.". And following the attack, redneck country women say this: "This is an outrage. BTF was attacked for no reason other than who is is. This is a hate crime. It is an injustice."
Oh never mind, the whole idea is just too dumb to be funny. That goes for your original too.

The View ladies would be only so lucky to have sex with BTF, consensual or not.

You are not going to be assaulted by a gang of black youth just because you are a white libertarian man who these young men view as their "enemy."
Seriously.
You would be assaulted by a gang of black youth because your stupid arse shouldn't have been in Orange Mound after dark (and you without a gun most likely).
