They constantly cry about ThE wOkE aGeNdA when you can select pronouns that LITERALLY have 0 impact on gaming, but apparently including WoKe content in the actual game is ok if you’re on their side.
I don’t like that those ‘woke’ settings don’t have any impact in historic games. Because that ‘woke-washes’ history.
That was one of my gripes with Hogwarts Legacy. The wizarding world in Victorian times where certainly not egalitarian when it came to race or sexual identity. And if they where, it should be explained why they are so different from the muggle world at that time.

It’s the exact same thing as right-wing weirdos associating the term “feminist” strictly with with the most extreme, fundamentalist, fringe elements of the movement, “feminazis” if you will, that went way over the equality hill and ended up in “all men are bad, m’kay” forest.
The fact that public media often reinforces that view does not help.
In short: the game is woke, because it showcases a gay romance with historical accuracy. Vavra thinks it’s not woke, because it doesn’t allow the player character to be a black lesbian with “them” pronouns.
