If that’s the case, then they’re just criticizing bad writing, like all of us are.

They're criticising a specific type of bad writing. There are many ways a story can be written poorly. "Bad writing" isn't being honest about why and how the writing is bad.

That said, there are definitely far right people who regard well written minority characters to be woke. I understand the user above to be explaining that that's not everyone who uses the term, and I agree.

the post you replied to brought up a counter-example... but is it really?

i think it probably is yet another example of "poorly written character exists only to be gay"

so basically just reinforcing the point GP made
