Your dancing around the answer says more than you being open and honest about this ever could
You know how most people never heard of this company or care that it exists? My understanding is that they consult on games to make them more inclusive. So you have a gay character written into a game, perhaps the result of this company's contributions or perhaps not, and then a bunch of people complain that Sweet Baby made the game woke or some nonsense. How did I hear of this? Steam forums became a cesspool for people crying about this company. If Suicide Squad bombs, it's because they consulted with Sweet Baby and went woke. Indiana Jones maybe features a woman in the trailer who looks like more than a damsel in distress? Sweet Baby's doing.
It sounds like all I need to do is to continue to ignore this list I just heard of, and judge each game by its own merits.
Correct, this is not a call to action for anyone except Valve to moderate conspiracy theorists.
