A lot of people found that focus on identity a turn off, since many shows seemed to be themed around this. There's already a focus on it in day to day life, at work, and in headlines, especially during 2020. People need a break. If I never expressed any interest, it's odd to me that the recommendation engine would put it front and center, every time.
I believe that is what people complaining about 'woke' Netflix shows are referring to. Not the existence of them, the feeling that they're being promoted to everyone. They're welcome to continue, and the subscription numbers can either go up or down.
"BIPOC stands for Black, Indigenous, and people of color."
That's really the last thing I care about from VOD service. Also judging by cast there are hardly any BIPOC people in 13 reasons why, seems pretty white to me.
