So yeah, I want to try playing some tabletop games, but I don't want to give money to the rainbow cult, so is there any sort of resource that can help me identify which board/card games are woke? Also, any specific recommendations from you guys? Looking for almost anything from casual party games to intense games with deep mechanics.

Just go get Yugioh cards, the left can't understand it to infiltrate and the community there is probably so weeb that anyone NOT legitimately wanting to play leaves on their own because they're tired of their opponent explaining every card.
Fortunately, Yugioh has over a 100 games, made at dozens of points in its history, so you can find great points to jump in and just have a good time. Many of them don't even have anything to do with the card game, and just the monsters in a different type of genre. Duelist of the Roses literally has Henry Tudor tell you to call him Yugi then just does the plot of War of the Roses in a grid based RPG.
Shit you can just pick up Legacy of the Duelist, which has each "era" separated out already and then just play in that forever. Me and my buddy picked it up a few years back and just had a blast dueling with only OG/GX decks.
I second this, as I've been shown by a friend quite a few more recent cards that would get the lefties screeching (though there is censorship on the international versions).
The rules and card effects have gotten so convoluted from the old days of just the Pharaoh Yami Yugi, that it can be dumbfounding. There seems to be a high learning curve with all the different summon types now, and that alone pretty much gatekeeps it.
YGO is too complicated for my small brain. I play Pokemon and Digimon though.
