      Do they think anti-capitalism isn't woke or are they this oblivious to satire?

        These people have literally zero media literacy. If the subtext isn't directly in the text (and even then they still have even odds to miss it) then they will whiff on it get mad over some arbitrary woman or black person numbers within the game rather than what characters within the game actually do.

        I'm pretty sure Doom 2016 won't be on the list because fun dumb shooty game, when it's got an obviously anti-capitalist message right there, with evil billionaire turns himself into a robot while getting the planet hooked on hell energy so earth doesn't go without it's treats.
