Is Sesame Street woke? If so, why?

Yesterday I shared [https://i.imgur.com/qJ8xEkf.jpeg](this Elmo tweet) in a thread on a conservative Facebook group. They were collectively cringing over Trump's post criticizing Bad Bunny, so I added Elmo's tweet with "Elmo for president." Someone responded "this is why it's a good thing we defunded PBS."

It reminded me of when a coworker heard my son had gotten into Sesame Street and immediately asked "so how woke is it?"

I've been watching a lot of it, mostly episodes from the last ten years, and the more I watch the more confused I get. Why do people think it's woke?
