That, and it's a genuine comedy goldmine. Microsoft Flight simulator and Garry's Mod are listed by the official woke detector steam curator. Their reasoning litterally sounds like a Key & Peele sketch.

Fucking hell, their 'not-woke' list is minuscule and reasons for being 'woke' are absurd, it's more like a nazi approval rating...

Isn't that what 'Woke' always was?

A magic word with a shapeshifting definition, mostly for the nazis to throw at things and people they don't like.

yeah but like ive seen people use it more moderately to the very least, this dude considers everything to be woke

Never heard of woke detector before so went and had a look. Omg it reads like satire, but unfortunately it isn't. Crazy.
