I've heard arguments that the supposed "woke" part actually backfired and it turned into a men's rights movie and Ken is the hero?
I don't know though, I haven't seen it.

I don’t have enough interest to care. Society is way off course. It’s all just a big distraction. Let them play with their toy movies.

Most people are woke one way or another and can't afford not to care about nonsense ;)

Woke is fine, if done well.
For example, the movie "Hidden Figures" is about black women computers in the John Glen era of NASA, and is an excellent movie IMO.

I wouldn't call that one woke by modern standards, just exaggerated period drama.
In fact it had a white director and was accussed of "whitewashing" in some circles:
