If you mean that game series itself, then very possibly (idk enough to comment on it. My experience extends to MW4 waaay back).
But Battletech, the setting/franchise, is definitely vulnerable. The recent PC game wasn't completely free of woke nonsense and the only reason it probably didn't get more was it happened to be in development in the mid-10s. It was definitely there though. It had pronouns in character creation, one of the pre-made chars in the campaign was based on one of the anti-GG journos, majority of the main good characters were women..
The wokeness was tempered but it was present in the game. We're "lucky" that the tabletop game is relatively obscure today otherwise it'd be falling into wokeism just like all the major players.
I’m talking Battletech tabletop, Battletech fluff books, and pre-Mechwarrior Online. The best books were made by Stackpole (writer of the original X-Wing series) and the basic rules are free.
The tabletop game has had issues with online infiltration for ages but it's been mostly protected by all the bookkeeping the tabletop game requires. Being hard to get into isn't always a bad thing.
