Slovakisk politiker kritiserade "woke"-spel under EU-debatt

En ledamot av Europaparlamentet avbröt en diskussion om bevarande av datorspel med kritik mot mångfald i titlar som Assassin's Creed Shadows. Kommentarerna fälldes under ett plenarsammanträde i Strasbourg den 21 maj.

Milan Uhrík, ledare för det högerextrema partiet Republiken från Slovakien, talade under debatten om initiativet Stop Destroying Videogames. Han hävdade att "wokeness" och politisk korrekthet skadar branschen och gav exempel på spel där spelare måste anta rollen som en queer karaktär eller en afrikansk samuraj i Assassin's Creed Shadows.
