"what is SHOWN about them as Spiderwoman? Where's the backstory?" You skipped over that.
Uh, no. I didn’t. I literally said in a previous post that it was obviously bad writing.
Bad writing =\= woke
You’re the one that thinks that’s mutually exclusive.

Just so we're clear, they SHOWED 3 spiderwomen in costume, but gave zero context, no back story, no 'Peter Parker' level origin explanation of WHY they're 'Spiderwomen, at all?
Well, yeah. That's super bad writing. It's also incoherent 'yay-women!' nonsense. Some may call that 'woke', ala Mary Sue style. But it's not as bad as gender or race swapping characters, like has been done dozens of times in the MCU and other places.

And again, this was in the bad guys dream of the future. It never actually happens in the movie.

It really wasn't.

Luke Skywalker had a bad dream so then decided he had to kill his nephew level bad, it sounds like.

I don’t think anyone is disputing that. Hence the “bad writing”.

That’s not what a Mary Sue is.
And bad writing isn’t exclusive to female characters.
You’re stretching this to justify your OP about this “woke” list.

You haven’t explained why it should be woke honorable mention. Honorable mention means almost making the list, but being just shy of it. If it is not woke, as you stated, why would it be woke honorable mention.
Feels like an everything I don’t like is woke vibe

No, not really. It's not MINE. It's a video I posted by Nerdrotic of HIS top 5 woke things.

Yeah, I did. Read again.

Yeah, that was definitely bad, and you'd find yourself backed into the same corner trying to explain how it was woke.

Nerdrotic's
All he is these days is clickbait. He hasn't been interested in generating actual, informative content once he realized he had a base he could pander to.
He's basically a worse version of the Drinker, who will at least - on occasion - actual demonstrate a knowledge of the medium.

"these days"?
He's as he's always been. Talking about the good and bad that's coming out of Hollywood. With an emphasis on comic book-based content because he's a lifelong fan, collector and oh yeah, owned a comic bookstore for 10 years.
And as Hollywood studios dump more and more $ into trash projects like The Acolyte and Rings of Power, it only stands to reason that's going to get more and more attention from fans and content creators who cover this stuff.

What was "woke" in this besides it had women? They weren't even superheroes, they ran around scared the whole time then the Pepsi sign killed the bad guy.
I find some confuse woke with having more ethnic, homosexual or female characters in a show or movies than they are comfortable with.
For me woke is exaggerating social-political narratives to the extreme to make extreme and one-sided socio-political points or statements, and part of that might be the overreaching use of diversity in the cast to do so.
I don't consider the former without the latter to be woke. I think some tend to do so.

Happy now? I don't agree with Gary. I was giving him an out, as to WHY it may be 'woke',
Gary? Lmao. I hope to God you're trolling at this point. If not, I'm sure Gary appreciates your Patreon and private Discord memberships.

Yes. Gary Buechler is his name.

Many people see the fact that it was made at all as being woke.

Madame Web wasn't woke
Hell, Kraven was more woke
They practically sold the movie off the chest of Sidney Sweeney.
You know EXACTLY what you are selling when you cast:
I never watched it, but felt like it was being sold as:
A) Spider-man adjacent
B) Don't you want to frick these women?
