Capital-G Gamer

Noun.

A self-styled "hardcore gamer" who proliferates the excesses of gaming culture, including its issues of elitism and bigotry against marginalized groups, and who stands opposed to the normalization of video games for a mass-market audience.

Although Gamergate has provided a unifying ideal for them, and has amplified their presence on the internet, Capital-G Gamers have existed since Nintendo Entertainment Systems were found in the boys' toy aisle, in the form of webcomic authors, arcade bullies, and internet forum posters who reject efforts to cater to the female playerbase--among countless other forms.

Woke

The belief that there are systemic injustices in American society and the need to address them.

This is the definition of "woke" as provided in court by Republican governor of Florida Ron DeSantis's legal team. Would you have voted for Trump if you disagreed?
