evidence: A post shared on social media purports that actor and director Clint Eastwood returned his Academy Awards due to Hollywood being "morally bankrupt." [...] The claim is inaccurate. The claim stems from a satirical outlet called Esspots. The article’s headline reads, "Clint Eastwood Returns Oscar, Says ‘It’s Become Too Much Woke.'" (RELATED: No, Warner Bros. Did Not Cancel $10 Million Robert De Niro Project) [...] Eastwood has spoken on "wokeness" before, suggesting that people should "get over" some of the comments that former President Donald Trump has made that have been deemed "racist," according to The Guardian. The actor and director goes on to critique the political climate and societal views in the Esquire interview cited.
