Any examination of Netflix that does NOT include Go Woke Go Broke is a joke. Everyone I know is at least aware of how cookie cutter and predictable the woke agenda is on every Netflix original, and it is a reoccurring topic when people finally decide to cancel
So why hasn’t Disney+, which is at least as “woke”, had a similar decline?
What about CNN+?

If anything this validates those complaints. They are course correcting. Wouldn’t need a memo like that if their content wasn’t leaning to one side. The only reason Chapelle is on Netflix is because one of the CEOs is a huge fan. There was a lot of internal pushback.
That is not as good of an argument as you think it is. > The only reason Chapelle is on Netflix is because one of the CEOs is a huge fan. There was a lot of internal pushback. In other words, CEO endorses and demands a "comedian" who punches down on __other minorities__, and somehow Netflix is "woke".
I reject the concept of 'punching down' in comedy. Either a joke is funny or it isn't. Nothing else matters.

Nearly every video is extreme left propaganda like black actor playing English queen Charlotte. That was so dumb and disgusting to watch that a lot of people canceled subscription on that time.
Bridgerton, set in an alternate universe is a show that has had a pretty intense trigger effect. The idea of black people playing Regency era personalities is unacceptable for some despite being obviously far from historically accurate to the point of being classified as “dumb and disgusting”.

Unprofitable movies is just accounting. Something to do with Hollywood union compensation or something.
There are obvious flops based on how much it cost to make and how much it made in the box office.

This seems like a mirror to the other classic apocryphal story where the IBM ask a new Japanese manufacturer to only have a 3/1000 defect rate and the Japanese seem alarmed by this request. When the product arrives there's a seperate little box with the defective items that have been manufactured seperately to meet the spec. (There's also the "half of my advertising is effective, I don't know which half" line)
The half of advertising is effective trope hasn’t been true on the internet for over a decade. Advertisers on the internet know exactly how effective their advertising is.

Equating whatever random super hero drivel is being shoved down your throat to meditation is quite the stretch.
The MCU by itself has made over $25 billion world wide and that’s not counting the Fox/Marvel series that Disney now owns. They must be doing something right. And that’s just in theaters. That’s not counting money made via syndication, licensing, home video, etc

Not sure why you put Tesla in the list. They still grow substantially, just added two new large factories (Germany, Texas) and about to build another one (Indonesia).
Until a few months ago, Netflix was spaffing out content deals to support growth.(although they have announced a $250m deal with double negative animation.) Everything is a genius growth model until its not.
Growth is when you get more money from customers.

In the children sitcom 'No good Nick' a female chef ignores feedback from her employee by accusing him of 'mansplaining'. The daughter accuses the white dad of 'cultural approriation' when he suggests taco Tuesday for the restaurant. And that was only the first minutes of one episode.
And that’s more extreme on Netflix than other channels? White Lotus on HBO touched every woke topic in existence and was enjoyable. It’s the content that matters not how it leans.
