That headline is doing him dirty. Makes it sound like he is annoyed about the opposite.
The actual tweet the article is about:
Pisses me off that people say Gears went “wOkE”.
These culture wars are out of control. If Gears 3 came out today they’d say the same thing about it – the cast was diverse AF and we had strong, non-sexualized female soldiers.
That makes sense, but what’s the genesis? Someone had to announce or oppose something for it to be a claim in order for him to react to it. And it wouldn’t make sense for some woke group to announce or accuse somebody in this context. I’m explaining poorly, but that’s the part that I don’t understand.

The headline is technically fine, we just hear it wrong in our heads. The noun is “claims”, that’s what pisses him off.
And who would make ‘woke claims’? Only one type of person, no one uses it unironically and positively…
With “woke claims”, in my head it sounded like he was ranting against accusations made by “the woke”.
