I haven't seen Andor so I can't comment, but I'll take the plunge on your advice.

I think corporate "progressivism" is certainly one of the culprits, but sometimes it's the creatives themselves who ruin things. Some creatives have even intentionally uprooted an IP like The Witcher's show, and Rings of Power. Sometimes progressive ideals are merely a shield against criticism, other times it's a creators' own ideals that made them ruin things, and sometimes it's just rainbow capitalism. It's not a simple issue to talk about really.
