People just seem to use the "woke" term for all types of silly shit these days.

It is woke because her back story is she is a victim of a white male who has a high rank. Then we are told by another female that ALL females in the army have suffered such abuse.
In truth, the story does not explain why she has such training, as it suggests she is more office based. In Under Siege we are told he is a former Navy SEAL.
In Under Siege when you see the top brass they are sat around a table debating, and you feel the tension. In this film, they are doing webcam, stood looking stupid. At that stage your at high risk, and as such, they would be on a safe nuclear war room, not sat as if they are watching a baseball game.
If you take Alien, Sigourney Weaver looks stressed. You feel her emotions. In this film, people are just saying a few silly lines, and look as calm as anything. The reality is, they could be starting a full scale nuclear war, with nothing left. Even if you only hit the USA, the radiation, would presumably infect other countries. You would think some of those involved would be a bit stressed.
