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.

I've been playing Dominion lately but I'm not enamoured. I mean its ok. Just would play other games if available.
What's good about Dominion is that the "best card" or combo changes for each game based on which cards are being used for the specific session. Adding in the expansions increases the variety.
Having everyone start with the same hand and buy the cards from the same pool eliminates many of the problems associated with CCGs.
I don't actually own a copy. Penny Arcade put out a deck builder through Cryptozoic that I like. It has a 'boss' pile of cards with game breaking powers, so one strat is to go high risk, high reward and get expensive boss cards rather than more, cheaper cards.
My friend has the board game but we ended up playing it on Steam as was much faster.
