Someone do an op about how Woke Content Detector is secretly a false flag and is woke themselves. It would be very funny I promise

[-] Lemmygradwontallowme@hexbear.net 25 points 2 months ago

Woke Content Detector is secretly a false flag and is woke themselves.

Isn't it in the name itself?

[-] AernaLingus@hexbear.net 25 points 2 months ago

The [Woke Content] [Detector] was really a [Woke] [Content Detector] all along

[-] Parzivus@hexbear.net 30 points 2 months ago

The woke detector shit is so funny because I can't find anyone who takes it seriously. Even the culture war people are making fun of it

[-] DragonBallZinn@hexbear.net 21 points 2 months ago

I hope this serves as a good time to reflect for the anti-woke crowd. They’re the disney adults of politics.

There's no fucking way lmao. A tool built for them and they hate it?

[-] CarmineCatboy2@hexbear.net 19 points 2 months ago

the mistake there is that the culture war is politics and politics is about falling in line. grifters are always on the lookout to see wether a) a given piece of media is popular (and therefore not woke); or b) if every other grifter agrees its woke (and it's not that popular). if you're out here calling everything under the sun woke, you become a joke that doesn't know where the wind blows.

in other words. only a true believer would call a jk rowling game woke.

It's because they went comically over the top with it. Tyranny is listed as woke because it has women owning property

Darkest Dungeon? Woke. Absolver? Woke. A porn game with crossdressing? Wait why are they rating porn games

[-] EmoThugInMyPhase@hexbear.net 12 points 2 months ago

Complaining about female combatants in a video game is so funny. Shit’s been around since the dawn of video games.

[-] keepcarrot@hexbear.net 7 points 2 months ago

Unless they only have thigh, butt, and breast based attacks, it's woke

[-] Des@hexbear.net 9 points 2 months ago

i don't play porn games but check out the description for demon roots:

After the Demon Lord's defeat, the remaining demons fled to the Dark Realm. A thousand years later, on the verge of extinction, demonkind decides to invade the human world again in one final struggle for survival. However, the world they return to after years in the darkness isn't the same as it once was.

Humans have turned against their fellow man. Downtrodden and defeated, the poor find an unlikely ally: the same demons who terrorized humanity a thousand years ago. Together with the demons, they fight against the world's victors, the ones who hold all the power, to gain their freedom and create a world they can call home.

queer demons helping to launch a communist revolution?? did someone make a game for me?

[-] barrbaric@hexbear.net 7 points 2 months ago

Holy shit, Tyranny is woke because men own ships???

[-] hopesdead@startrek.website 28 points 2 months ago

If you don’t like woke, why did you play them at all?

[-] FunkyStuff@hexbear.net 36 points 2 months ago

Media illiteracy self report: these treats I enjoyed had themes that I failed to identify at first glance, then a fellow chud illuminated them so now I hate them.

It's like if the shadow casters in Plato's allegory of the cave got tackled and the people trapped inside the cave learned that they're being suspended in an illusion of reality, but now the people in the cave are mad because the old shadows aren't convincing anymore and they want shinier shadows to keep them entertained.

I really wanna know if any of them have actually played the Humongous games.

Because anyone who claims Putt-Putt wouldn't be full of pride sporting a rainbow paintjob doesn't know Putt-Putt.

[-] neo@hexbear.net 16 points 2 months ago

Adding every game ever made to the Woke Content Detector list so that these losers fuck off forever.

[-] DragonBallZinn@hexbear.net 13 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

The digital soccer mom club finding out that being the fun police means they’re now policing their own fun.

Like I’ve liked anime and media made by right-wingers before and you don’t see me distraught I liked something made by “the enemy”.

Whether I like to admit it or not, Butch Hartman did a fantastic job on both Fairly Oddparents and Danny Phantom, my childhood would not be the same without him.

[-] roux@hexbear.net 8 points 2 months ago

normalize referring to "anti-woke" curators as digital soccer moms.

[-] ProletarianDictator@hexbear.net 7 points 2 months ago

Fairly Oddparents was distilled idealism.

The plot: Upper middle class suburbanite kid is given two magic wish granters because his baby sitter was kinda mean.

The primary antagonisms:

  1. His wishes violate some bourgeois set of rules.
  2. His wishes are granted, but bite him in the ass.

The primary lessons:

  1. Follow the rules, never question them, only recourse is trying to lawyer around them with technicalities.
  2. Never want better things, lest it upset the status quo.
  3. Action is never an acceptable way of getting what you want, only wish fulfillment.
  4. Never reveal that you possess methods capable of improving the lives of others.

I consider this show a training program to get children to become good liberals. My lil bro used to watch this show as a kid, and I was too young / libbed to express my distaste for it.

[-] Starlet@hexbear.net 7 points 2 months ago

Going through their negative reviews to find games to play rn

Also I like how they consider singular they in ANY context woke. Even in games where it's just done to refer to the player neutrally so they can self-insert

English is woke

[-] ProletarianDictator@hexbear.net 6 points 2 months ago

Chuds picking up Spanish just so they can assign gender to more shit.

[-] Starlet@hexbear.net 5 points 2 months ago

No they'd pick French or German or something. Spanish is for immigrants so it's woke too
