Question 1

Is Transformers One woke?

Accepted Answer

Transformers One has a woke score of 63/100, which means it is mixed, with noticeable woke elements. The story follows cogless miner bots Orion Pax and D-16 who discover their leader Sentinel Prime lied about Cybertron's history, stole their transformation cogs, and sold out the planet to keep the underclass powerless. Their rebellion and the friends' split over revenge versus principled freedom become the main engine. Class oppression, corrupt authority, and worker uprising themes run through the whole narrative and character arcs. No race/gender swaps or lectures on modern identity politics, but the underdog-versus-system framing is front-and-center and easy for viewers to spot.
