MK1 was bad but definitely wasn't "Woke^TM". Or are they just saying that because Mileena wears pants and not a bandage that only covers her nips and cooch? Honestly it's probably just that (not even for the first time) a woman is running Outworld.
I'm pretty sure it acknowledging female characters exist at all is considered woke by these people. Maybe they'd be okay with a female character who was barefoot pregnant wearing a dress in a kitchen, but only if she has no speaking lines.
I can't fathom a single one of those idiots has the attention span to have played the game, much less learned the lore. There is zero chance they know who is running Outworld. The outrage is manufactured and the dumb sheep fall in line. Simple as that.
