And when it comes to GTA VI, personally I don't care what the lead is as long as the character is well written, my biggest issue with GTA VI is the report about the Game being more dry on the humour front, because to me the satire in GTA franchise makes it standout from say the Mafia franchise for example. And when it comes to TV, again I have no issue with non-white Actors getting roles in Shows, for me personally though I do wish that TV Writers/Producers wouldn't just cast people because of one attribute though. My most obvious five I'm gonna use at the moment as I'm currently watching them are these five characters. Rountree (NCIS: LA) It's taken nearly two Seasons just to know what one of his personal interests are, and I don't blame the Actor I blame the writers who had no vision for the character other than the fact that they wanted a young black Actor in the programme, and that's all it was imo. Rajan (CSI: Vegas) Apart from her ship with Folsom, she has minimal involvement in the Show in other areas imo, and again I think that was because the Show didn't think past wanting an English character in the programme, which is a problem because it leaves a hollow character in the Show just because she's English. Folsom (CSI: Vegas) Anyone watching the return of CSI: Vegas will laugh at me because he is a young white American character, but ironically he is a token because he is the only one of that type in the programme, and again the writers don't really know what to do with him (again away from the ship with Rajan) and it shows that imo the writers had only thought of the aesthetic side of things rather than creating a brilliant character. And then the last two I've had to check their names out on IMDB because they're so under the radar. Raines & Vo (FBI: International) Basically yes some people do overuse the term woke, but characters like Rountree or the two from FBI: International aren't helping matters imo as they are getting more commonly made than say the iconic Benjamin Sisko from the Star Trek franchise.

That's my perception of what woke means to me, but I know what you mean, there are some people out there that think that black people being treated equally to white people is woke, which is just crazy in this day and age.

It's a much bigger issue than someone being "woke" imo as peoples lives can be ruined by cancel culture, it's a disease that nobody is willing to fight back against.

Apparently GTA is being called "woke" because they removed some trans NPCs after people chimped out.

Isn't removing trans NPC's the opposite of woke?

Oh people still use the word.
In my Internet circles it's just as commonly used as racist is.

Nah it was people that some might call "woke" who were complaining because it's not a flattering portrayal?

Yeah "racist" is as common as "woke" nowadays. Here's a good example of "racist" being over used or just plain incorrect - This guy i sometimes watch on twitch kept hitting lampposts/light poles when playing GTA, he said "i hate poles". Of course, almost immediately in chat were like "why do you hate poles, could be seen as racist you know". I can't remember the exact wording, but it was along those lines. I mean can a white British person be racist towards a Polish person? What even is the white to black ratio in Poles, like 1 in a Million. I dunno, he didn't even mean Polish people, but again it's people nowadays on their high horse ever ready to point the finger and brand!
