'Weapons' Is a Post-Woke Masterpiece

Ever since the revolutionary 1960s, books and films have rewarded audiences for embracing outsiders, while scolding them for distrust of the unknown. Wicked is just one notable example; instead of setting up a logical dichotomy condemning evil (the Wicked Witch of the West) and affirming goodness (home, safety, Kansas), audiences are made to feel like Salem inquisitors for failing to recognize that the reclusive, green-skinned witch was actually the good character all along.
