“Recommended” = No Woke themes present
“Informational” = Woke themes present with subtle/no specific messaging
“Not Recommended” = Woke themes present with overt messaging

Sounds like it was created by someone who doesn't like "woke themes".

I thought it was some kind of automatic woke detector. You know, following
automatic rules to detect wokeness? Isn’t there such a thing? You know,
just logically applying the definition.

You have to install and start the games and play some to gauge the
amount of mental sickness and victimhood baked into them. They look for
the following clues (among others):

----------------------------------------------------------------
Contains overtly Pro-LGBTQ+ messaging.

Contains overtly pro-DEI messaging.

Pronoun selection including the option for they/them.

All populated areas are equally diverse.

Many important people are POC.

Non-binary/other option available for identity in the character creation
menu.

Uses body type instead of male and female.

Optional homosexual romance.

Homosexual relationship between minor characters.

The npc Chaos is non-binary.

The npc Dusa says she is asexual.

includes a body swap mode that allows you to independently change
whether each character is male or female for his/her body and text.

Forced diversity that is inaccurate for the time period.

Contains overtly anti-patriarchy messaging.

Race swapping

LGBT flags

Not a game but a TV series had one of the more jarring examples:

https://joe-pickett.fandom.com/wiki/Nate_Romanowski

You might have some preconceptions about what a guy named Romanowski looks
like. The character is present in most of C.J. Box's Joe Picket novels.

https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/articles/interview-with-c-j-box-joe-
pickett-novels/

"Unlike just about every other character in the series, Nate Romanowski is
based on a friend of mine although I’ve exaggerated (Thank God) his
personality. The buddy I grew up with was a big blonde middle linebacker
who later went on to join the military and special forces. He took me
falconry hunting and through him I was introduced to the very strange and
fascinating world of falconers and the mindset that goes with it. "

The novels describe him as big and blonde. Box must have been told that
the series was sort of like a cop buddy show and one of the cops has to be
black. There is also another black character who portrays and ex Wyoming
game warden who is the unofficial mayor of a small town. Wyoming? Yeah,
okay.

I gave up on 'Vikings: Valhalla' after the second episode. The female,
black jarl of 'Kattegat' was the last straw. Okay, the Kattegat is the sea
between Denmark and Sweden, not a historical town, and Lagertha may have
been a creation of Saxo, but I'll go with this version:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VCQWyB1ssQg

The History Channel has a passing relationship with actual history but
Netflix goes completely off the rails.

Doesn’t that expose the player to “wokeness”? Isn’t that what you’re
trying to avoid?

Unlike AIDS wokeness is not very communicable in adults. However it often
manifests in children or adolescents and is incurable.

The MSM is now hyping a single "M pox" case in the US, now. A
*single* case of a gay man's disease in a country of 350 million
people.

Astonishing.

Yes and yes.

By tolerating and reporting on the wokeness, the members of the WCD
group who vet these games are committing selfless acts to help others
avoid the sickness that's permeating the tech world, and the US as a whole.

For example,

* the Linux Foundation will no longer allow all-male panels to present
at their events; at least one female must be part of the group.

* The Linux Foundation also encourages attendees to "pick up a pronoun
sticker".
https://events.linuxfoundation.org/kubernetes-forum-bengaluru/attend/diversity-inclusion/#onsite-resources

* Starting in 2025, to qualify for a Best Picture Academy Award the film
has to meet ridiculous racial and ethnic diversity standards.

https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie-features/oscars-
inclusion-rules-sparking-debate-1235343128/

If you thought - like me - that there were already too many irrelevant
negroids in Hollywood movies, just wait...

* Bud Light plastered a disgusting tranny's face on a can of their
beer, and hired a useless woke woman who immediately began insulting
Bud Light's customers and marketing. The good news is the company
paid dearly for their disgusting behavior: lost their #1 market
position, lost enormous revenue and market value, and took big hits
to their reputation.

My favorite is when Samuel L Jackson's movie characters have PhDs. He
was a PhD mathematician in Sphere, and some kind of PhD in Deep Blue Sea.

In real life, I'd be surprised if he could spell his own name.

He's been in a lot of good movies, but he's only believable as a
criminal or a crackhead.

Why do you give a flying fuck about Bud Light's advertising? How
could it possibly matter? You either like paying premium prices for
watered-down rice adjunct, or you don't.

That is SAD and revolting.

My Dad owned one of the iconic Jag E-types in the early 70s. Now they
think such disgusting wokeness is appropriate to sell modern cars? It's
not.

I have to wonder what kind of creepy ad studio created that campaign,
and who inside Jaguar would actually approve it? They're out of their
minds.

He did actually study marine biology. Do you know something about either
subject?

It makes me ill that a great American company (previously American
anyway) would publicly and financially celebrate revolting mental
illness and behavior like this:

Who tf wants to support a company like that? I'll NEVER buy another
Anheuser-Busch product.

I don't pay premium prices (except for the occasional Guinness Stout
dark). I mostly drink Miller Genuine Draft and Yuengling. I've been on
the lookout for a 6pk of Tsingtao beer, which I drank when I was younger.

The Es were nice but I preferred its predecessor, the XK-150. They were
recognized as stylish but a real PITA to work on. My Sprite only had two
SUs instead of three but that was bad enough. They made fancy synchonizers
that were out of my budget range so I used a length of fuel hose as a
stethoscope to get the two carbs whistling the same note, a literal tune-
up.

Overall I liked the funky earlier designs like the MGTD and TR-3 than when
the Brits tried to get modern. My Sprite was a '62, one year too late for
the bugeye. It also fell on a borderline where it had the larger 1100 cc
engine and the older marginal drum brakes. It would do 0 to 60 in a couple
of days but it was dun.

"Initially intent on pursuing a degree in marine biology, he attended
Morehouse College in Atlanta, Georgia.[13] After joining a local acting
group to earn extra points in a class, he found an interest in acting and
switched his major."

Without a transcript that could mean he decided acting was more his speed
halfway through Biology 101. It may have been different back when but
Morehouse doesn't have a program like University of Georgia or half the
colleges in Florida.

I know blacks can't swim, so he wouldn't have made it as a marine
biologist.

I bet he never took a single course in marine biology before he switched
majors to something requiring zero intellectual effort.

And I read him admitting to some kind of credit card fraud back in collich.

And he's a convicted violent felon, of course:

"After Martin Luther King Jr.'s assassination in 1968, Jackson attended
King's funeral in Atlanta as one of the ushers.[26] He then traveled to
Memphis, Tennessee, to join an equal rights protest march. In a 2005
Parade interview, he said, "I was angry about the assassination, but I
wasn't shocked by it. I knew that change was going to take something
different—not sit-ins, not peaceful coexistence."[27] In 1969, Jackson
and several other students held members of the Morehouse College board
of trustees (including Martin Luther King Sr.) hostage on the campus,
demanding reform in the school's curriculum and governance.[28] The
college eventually agreed to change its policy, but Jackson was charged
with and eventually convicted of unlawful confinement, a second-degree
felony.[29] He was suspended for two years for his criminal record and
his actions. He would later return to the college to earn a BA in drama
in 1972.[30] While he was suspended, he took a job as a social worker in
Los Angeles.[31] He decided to return to Atlanta, where he met with
Stokely Carmichael, H. Rap Brown, and others active in the Black Power
movement.[27] He began to feel empowered with his involvement in the
movement, especially when the group began buying guns.[27] However,
before he could become involved with any significant armed
confrontations, his mother sent him to Los Angeles after the FBI warned
her that he would die within a year if he remained with the group.[27]
In a 2018 interview with Vogue, he denied having been a member of the
Black Panther Party.[32]"

Of course he's your hero.
