      I had to stop and think of a time. Something was woke but wasn’t shit. I couldn’t think of something, so yes.

          A piece of media who pushes politics. The politics doesn’t belong in the media’s story and world. Like the creator(s) just added it in to push an message.

          Before someone ask. Yes, Right wingers do this. But I mainly see the Left do this.

            That’s a potentially interesting definition.

            Dream Daddy, the daddy dating sim isn’t a woke game in this context because the conceit of it being an LGBT friendly town with a bunch of single gay dads makes it all make sense.

            But a game set in 1300s Japan with a lesbian white protagonist would be woke because that seems incongruous?

            Would you consider military operations in a foreign country a political theme?

            Also do you think it’s okay for artists include a message in their work, even if it feels “pushed” to you? Maybe it feels essential to the creator, but since you disagree with the message it feels pushed to you.

            Ever stop to wonder who decided that sexuality was “political”?

            Sim City is a political game, because you’re the goddamn mayor.

            Please explain to me how and why my genitals should have ANYTHING to do with politics.

            literally all of literature is created to push a message. who are you to say what “belongs” and what doesn’t? it’s their story.
