Rules:
- 1: No spam or advertising. This basically means no linking to your own content on blogs, YouTube, Twitch, etc.
- 2: No bigotry or gatekeeping. This should be obvious, but neither of those things will be tolerated. This goes for linked content too; if the site has some heavy "anti-woke" energy, you probably shouldn't be posting it here.
- 3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.

The fuck are you talking about? No one is forcing anyone to “have all genders or races or include trans people”
This you bro?
I don't think they meant literally. More in the sense that if you don't include them you're suddenly "anti-trans/gay/whatever".
Who does this? I am only aware of far-right bros angrily making lists of games that have black and/or gay characters.
those are the people 1984 is talking about, or rather to, I believe.
Edit: nvm, 1984 is among them perhaps.
That's the anti-woke propaganda the text you're quoting is complaining about. If you listen to anyone right wing long enough this is what they'll bring up eventually. it's "fake news" basically -- very dangerous fake news.
Perhaps you misunderstood the poster?
Edit: nope, I did.
No he is misrepresenting what’s going on and telling on himself.
In what way? I don't even know what "telling on himself" means. I'm just expression my opinion about this. Why is that so upsetting?
yeah, I think there's been a terrible miscommunication somewhere. It might help if you clarify -- do you yourself believe that there is a sizeable contingent of people who want to force games to include all walks of life?
who
1984?
misrepresenting the anti-woke crowd? I think they literally believe that stuff, forced diversity etc.
Edit: nvm, I was wrong.
