CohhCarnage said something about this.
Game Devs often include requests along these lines for sponsored segments of a stream (and only the parts of the stream paid for), including talking about COVID during the high point of the COVID pandemic.
The odd part that he noted is some of the specific wording, that he attributed to mistranslation - like "feminist propaganda".
I have no idea about the parts relating to Chinese game dev.
The benefit of the doubt in me says: this is some bad translation and culture disconnect.
The pragmatist in me says: this guides content creators. So, take such content with a pinch of salt in these regards - play the game if it actually seems decent.
I feel like the pragmatist is pretty much default these days, all content guides you to some conclusion. So do what the fuck you want.
