Of course, by "call out" they mean sort of vaguely point out that they exist without actually saying anything meaningful, and that will still somehow be too political for the "gamers".
No, this is just cynical and mean-spirited.
It was an individual developer talking on the podcast about what he wants the game to be, there's no reason to think he doesn't feel exactly the same way you do.
If you're going to be cynical, be cynical about whether or not that messaging would make it through the layers of corporate beurocracy until it's published, not whether the individual wants to do something meaningful, most do.
