I recently found a list of "Woke" Video Games on Steam and I thought it'd be pretty funny to check out it and I was not disappointed. This list of over 1,400 games contains some of the most insane takes I've ever heard.

Because of idiots like them, either not understanding what woke means, or by taking it to comical extreme, real issues get buried under. I wouldn't be surprised if this list was created by an Ai or was meant to be funny in the first place. I would say some stuff there has nothing to do with wokeness at all, such as gay relationships is too woke for them. I go this far and say whoever made that list seems to be anti-gay.

And that's my take, going too extreme is always bad and destroys any nuances and makes real problems hard to find and discuss.
