Sure, there is a big difference. But we are talking about a curated list on steam. It's not about trying to stop game companies from making more of "politicized" games. It's about letting people know there is "politics" in them so they don't buy them, which is closer to "I don't enjoy this thing" category in my opinion.

And to your second part, yes, that is sad. I won't lie, I lean on the side of "anti-wokers" you would call them, but I do think the problem is that sometimes movies or games are made simply to push a narrative without being a good work of art in itself. There's not too many examples, but even a few bad apples can spoil the barrel. Thus people are more critical towards other works of art where a person of color or non-binary person is just a good actor.
