I have a confession. When these people say something is "woke," it makes me want to check it out as it might be a piece of art that has things I care about, like inclusion and fairness. I keep a list of "woke" games bookmarked so I can learn about new games that normally wouldn't be on my radar to checkout. They think everything is "woke." It hasn't been updated since March, but it still has a lot of content on it.
Here is the list:

I've ended up doing the same for most media lately. Be it movies, games or shows.
"Captain America Brave New World is WOKE!" sounds cool, I'm gonna go watch it.
"JAMES GUNN MADE SUPERMAN WOKE!!" sign me TF up.
"Iron Heart is WOKE AND RIRI IS A DEI HIRE" bruh I'm a Marvel fan you had me at Iron.
How does everyone feel about Ghostbusters (2016)?
I love the cast collectively and individually, the movie is meh though. Absolutely the writers' fault.
