Woke Detector

A friend linked this site and I'm loving it. The site itself is a joke website using a list "compiled from the woke content detector steam group" - the creator isn't associated with the group. Group reviews kind of remind me of the Legion of Decency film reviews, which I remember reading in the church bulletins they gave out at my church while I was growing up. I must be misremembering, though, because the Legion of Decency hadn't existed for years by the time I was born.

I'm definitely using this as a shopping list. I'm also really enjoying some of the objections they have. Haven't read any of the full reviews but these summaries:

Features multiple LGBTQ+ npcs, including the npc Floofty Fizzlebean who is non-binary and uses they/them pronouns.
The player character is a fat guy who can somehow deep-dive and swim long distances without trouble. The sushi chef is black.
The word 'gay' is spelled out by three mannequins posing in flag symbols. Level 5-S contains a reference to the BlÄhaj plushie, a pro-trans symbol.
Contains overtly pro-transhumanism messaging. The player character is cybernetically enhanced. Use of these abilities for surveillance/interrogation is a core part of the game.
Contains overtly pro-LGBTQ+ messaging. Death is referred to using both he/him and they/them pronouns.
The player character is a lesbian superhero with depression. Features a story about depression and lesbian romance.
Features a story about Marxist principles. Most male characters are weak, stupid, and/or evil.
Features an all-female cast involved in a labor union. Forces the player to engage in collective bargaining. Heavy social commentary.
Features multiple LGBTQ+ characters. The WOC npc Anna seems to be a race-swapped Velma look-alike.
The player character is a WOC who can fix any antique. She immediately finds plenty of work in a town she has never been to before. 2 of her 4 clients are also WOC.
Uses body type in place of biological sex during character creation. The V Blood Carrier Goreswine the Ravager is referred to using they/them pronouns.
Features multiple LGBTQ+ playable characters. The roster is comprised of real-life wrestlers some of whom identify as LGBTQ+.
Contains overtly pro-LGBTQ+ messaging. The 'Curse! Change Sex' card forcibly changes a player's sex.
Several Greek gods have been race-swapped including Hestia, who has vitiligo. Multiple npcs appear androgynous contradicting Greek myth/art.
Features a feminist meta-narrative about getting revenge on internet trolls. The game ends with the female player character kicking the male villain in the balls.

Amazing. Absolutely amazing.
