The series focuses on universal themes of individual growth, overcoming personal prejudice, and navigating social relationships, rather than explicitly promoting a partisan political ideology or advocating for systemic political change. Its core conflicts and solutions are primarily social and relational, leading to a neutral rating.

This modern adaptation of a classic novel incorporates significant diversity through its casting choices, explicitly recasting several traditionally white roles with minority actors. The narrative, however, maintains a focus on character-driven romantic and social dynamics without explicitly critiquing traditional identities or making DEI themes central to its plot beyond the casting.
