Also, the platform "values you" and yet you have to pay the platform to boost your posts. It would seem like it is you who value the platform, and not the platform that values you. I guess that's just "common sense."

Does that mean all the retro games created before storage technologies and audio quality became good enough to include voice acting are woke? And I guess Sega CD era FMV games are the height of anti-woke gaming.

Considering how casually sexist and homophobic those sorts of games tended to be, you're probably right.
