Lol this is probably why every corporation has shifted left on social issues moreso than the alleged cultural liberalism of the people in charge. People who are appealed to by "wokeness" are much easier to please than the opposite. You'll never produce a sufficiently reactionary work for the target audience of this shit, and you'll alienate the overwhelming majority of working age people. Just seems like an awful decision to make.
Also the pool of potential new customers (women, POC, LGBTQ, etc) you can attract is so much larger than the disgruntled and bitter reactionaries who you lose.

Christ, it isn't even that. It's purely a demographic challenge. Gina Carano is a mixed-martial artist turned actress trying to secure a career in a field where her target audience hates her for doing both of those things. Like, if she wants to get a fucking job, she has to appeal to some kind of feminist liberals. Its non-negotiable. That's where the money is.
If Gina Carano was Andrew Tate, this wouldn't be a problem. Tate could have transitioned from Gun-tooting Space Marine to shotgun-wielding frontier badass and received nothing but thunderous applause by these fascist dorks. It also doesn't help that she's in shows with no budget, no direction, and nobody else on the screen who can act worth a damn.

We produce hits for this crowd all the time. Chuds love Fight Club. They love Die Hard. They love The Matrix. They love Batman. They love The Boys. They love Tulsa King.
They fall over themselves trying to head-cannon away anything that might be conflict with their ideological views. They champion the bad guys to be edgy and ironic. They create whole epic meme sagas with photoshopped vignettes to explain how it ended in their own brains.
The joke about people screaming over "Woke" is the same joke as that classic Trump tweet:
:trump-anguish: The Coca Cola company is not happy with me--that's okay, I'll still keep drinking that garbage.
Chuds will never stop eating your slop when you're an A-lister. They'll only punish you for doing some Ben Shapiro Lifetime crap while being a woman.
She kinda tried that route with her spat of conservative movie roles. I'm sure she's got a dozen one-liners in Terror on the Prairie that amount to "I'm twice as tough as any big city liberal!" followed by a series of epic gun-fu stunts.
But Shapiro's base is so fucking rarified and we're so far removed from the Kay Bailey Hutchinson / Sarah Palin era of Republican politics that she's still too much of a Liberal even when she's explicitly anti-feminist. She would have to renounce her whole claim to fame - her tough-girl MMA legacy - and devolve entirely into TradWife Life.
Abigail Shapiro can pull that shit off, but Gina Carano can't.

Again, I don't think she can pull that off as a woman. Also, just an absolutely miniscule market for stabbing your own daughter movies.
