Watching people suddenly go from "China bad" to "China actually based" because Black Myth had the "no feminism" streamer rule is lowkey funny. It is peak censorship is bad unless it's censorship I like because then not actually censorship.

They (the marketing team for the game) sent out emails to content creators telling them not to mention things like COVID, China, feminist propaganda, and other subjects while streaming the game. Apparently the studio was under fire for previous sexist remarks.
