    1: They do have “A Gay Love Story About Gay Love”, marked as Woke, though. 4: It’s because she’s a villain doing things portrayed as big mistakes. See also the Portal 2 discussion:

    On the scientists, I think it would be less Woke if they were all female. It seems that the events in the games take place in large part because the arrogant/foolish scientists lose control of their own experiment.

    Maybe it’s just me, but them being able to create amazing technologies seems like less of a problem if they lose control and all die as a result.

    There’s an implication there that they got in over their head and/or were incapable of handling the work they were doing.

    I think that’s a pretty good example of the effects of DEI in the workplace.

    Not to get too far into the weeds, but you could relate this to what has happened to Star Wars/Star Trek.

    A bunch of women in corporate positions produced a bunch of new media (which generated tangible results at first) but then the whole thing collapsed as a result of their methods and the IP are essentially dead at this point.

    Maybe not an exact comparison, but there are parallels.
