some of these are taken directly from the "woke content detector" list

Undertale- "Contains overtly pro-LGBTQ+ messaging. Multiple non-binary characters that use they/them pronouns, including the player character. Two major characters can form a homosexual relationship."

Hollow Knight- "Contains subtly pro-LGBTQ+ messaging. The npc Cloth is revealed to be a lesbian. An achievement called Happy Couple involves the nailsmith becoming a male model for the npc Sheo."

Celeste- Trans Protaginast

Cassette Beasts: fawking PRONOUNS and all companions can be romanced regardless of gender

Ultrakill: "Contains overtly pro-LGBTQ+ messaging. The word 'gay' is spelled out by three mannequins posing in flag symbols. Level 5-S contains a reference to the Blåhaj plushie, a pro-trans symbol"

Sorry We're Closed: : "Contains overtly pro-LGBTQ+ messaging. Features multiple LGBTQ+ characters including the player character. Features multiple non-binary characters that use they/them pronouns"

There's a Steam community dedicated to posting about which games are woke and why, so that like-minded individuals can avoid them. Somebody made this tool to scrape it and cross-reference it with your/anyone's Steam library. Kinda hilarious in a depressing way.

Edit: suddenly I realize you were probably asking about the opening quote, not the woke reasoning quotes...

this is a great list to find new games btw. I unironically consult it to find gay stuff

No I was looking for literally any context whatsoever since your post didn't link to anything so I was hella confused lol

I dunno, this tool seems like a gloryhole with no guarantee of what'll happen if you use it.
