What We Think

Among Us is a breath of fresh air for those tired of woke trends. It completely sidesteps modern ideological traps, offering gameplay without any preachiness or overbearing representation. Stick figures in space; no agendas attached.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

Among Us is almost entirely void of narrative or character development, let alone ideological prioritization. Gameplay is focused on deduction and deception, not on backstory or social messaging. Character traits are literally limited to colorful suits and silly hats, making it ideologically neutral as they come.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

There’s simply no attempt to explore or undermine religion, family, tradition, or gender roles. The game world is abstract, crewmates are little blobs. No ideology snuck in here; morality is limited to 'don't get stabbed by the Impostor.'

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

Nobody gets up on a soapbox in Among Us. The game has no dialogue or worldview to peddle (unless we count space blob paranoia as a worldview). Zero ideological uniformity, just pure gameplay and backstabbing fun.
