it is, quite objectively, false. Most of the circumstances to a particular issue "going broke because woke" can be easily attributed to other things

-Most of the "woke" games just objectively aren't very good (E.G: Forspoken is badly paced, lacks gameplay depth, and was one of the first 70$ games. It's issue isn't that it's "woke", it's issue is that it wasn't worth the asking price)

-Movies get executive meddled and mismarketed to nonsense because they're throwing whatever at the wall to see what sticks. Superhero Fatigue. "Cinematic Universe" fatigue - standalone, good movies seem to do pretty well regardless of the theming (e.g. Nimona, Elemental after word-of-mouth campaigns made up for the worst marketing ever)

and then there's WB being like "we don't actually -release- films anymore lol"

-Localization debates seem to think it's a cultural pushback and not some guy in a suit who's never even so much as read a manga going "y'know, if I feed this into the shitty google translate we save 80 dollars a month and the stockholders who also don't watch anime like that"
