If we're being really honest here, it wasn't "wokeness" or LGBTQ stuff that was the bellwether for the end of RT, it was Gen:Lock. It was a total failure on catastrophic levels, from siphoning talent and money that should've gone to improving RWBY (lol), to behind the scenes production drama, to them totally beefing Season 2 to a point where even those who enjoyed Season 1 absolutely loathed it. RT never fully recovered from Gen:Lock's failure and not even daddy Warner Bros (who's bleeding money as it is) could save them.
Then came the sex pest scandal and then them basically saying "fuck off" to their audience, which hastened RT's demise and now they're in the sad, shambling state they are in to the point they're dragging Burnie back for the last season of RvB (which should've been taken out behind the shed several seasons ago) as a last-ditch "Hail Mary" pass to try and lure back older fans, which isn't really going to work.
If RT survives as its own entity by this time next year, I'll be surprised. With the way things are going right now at Warner Bros, I suspect RT will either be sold off to cover debts (even though the brand isn't as valuable as it was in its zeitgeist) or dissolved entirely, with RvB, Camp Camp, and Gen:Lock banished to the land of tax write-offs, never to be seen again.
RWBY's fate is one of three things:
1) Made into a wholly owned WB IP with RT having no recourse to buy back the rights
2) Sold by WB to another studio (like Netflix or Crunchyroll) to cover their debts; new owners proceed to reboot the series rather than do Vol. 10.
3) Tax-write off never to be seen again
Either way, F in the chat for Rooster Teeth lol
