Should we use the "anti woke" steam curators to buy games?
(media.fedia.io)
And leave reviews saying "Bought this game because it was on the anti-woke curator's list. Thanks"?
Edit: it seems like people understand this post as a "let's buy non-woke games". I mean it as "use the list to find 'woke' games" and buy those. Not mindlessly, of course. But review-bombed "woke" games can have a harder time (especially in their forums), because of such curators and it could be a good way to discover actual good games that are subjugated to hate coming from these curators and groups.
I'm confused. What is anti-work in relation to gaming?
The link just seems to point to a list of steam curators who talk like middle schoolers in lieu of a review.
This post is baffling to me.
It's a typo in the post title. The body refers to anti-woke curators, which incidentally makes your description accurate
...oh.
This post is supremely stupid then.
Yeah, I think this post suffers from being vague. The default reading would be to take the curators at face value and follow their opinion.
A more charitable reading, and one that I hope OP had intended, is to buy the games that these curators recommend against, because if they think they're bad for being woke that probably means they're good.
To OP: I'm of a divided opinion. On one hand this is probably a decent method of discovery, and I absolutely want to make those curators feel as unwelcome and foolish as their hateful rhetoric. On the other hand, I don't want to surround myself with hatred or live for spite. Plus I think calling them out would count as feeding the troll, and the Streisand effect suggests that would actually help them by creating engagement.
