By “feminist propaganda” they are probably referring to the false sexism allegations that game journalists have been using to slander the company.
Yeah, it’s exactly what you said.
Ignore the downvotes; either people don’t know the history of what the Devs went through, or ignore it on purpose.
The studio refused an offer by Sweet Baby Inc of a 7m$ consultation. Right after that happened, games journalists like IGN started making articles accusing the studio of sexism. The “evidence” was several anonymous sources (in other words, made up, until at least one of them comes forward) and a few (possibly purposefully) mistranslated quotes that sound sexist in the mistranslations but are at most a little vulgar in the original language.
Even after the mistranslations were debunked, the journalists made no effort to retract or edit their articles, and as of today the only thing they have that could possibly paint the studio in a bad light are these anonymous sources but those cannot be verified and are therefore not valid. They’re likely completely made up.
Maybe say that then? Rather than saying something that can only be construed as bigoted?

Yes. This article is one of them. There is no evidence of sexism. Just a bunch of mistranslated messages that once properly translated aren’t sexist at all. IGN has already been called out for this, and the tweets have been community noted.
IGN did actually make a non-apology along the lines of “well they should have just commented on the accusations”, but the studio has no obligation responding to accusation from a bunch of people of some dying medium. Ignoring them is no doubt the best thing the studio can do.
Other journalists have since also made stories covering this and know that the statements are false so they started using weasel wording such as “sexist remarks being attributed to” instead of “they said”. It is so obvious that they’re doing this on purpose to hurt the reputation of the studio.
I don’t get how you’re being downvoted for just stating facts.
It’s not like you’re making anything up without any actual evidence, and yet, people just want to hate anything with the words “sexist” or “DEI” because that means the party opposing them is automatically wrong.

Could add a reference to the coup against Xi, too. Dunno if it’s true, but it’s probably something whoever is in control of the CCP would want to censor either way, at least until they are ready to openly replace Xi if it is true (though even then, they probably won’t be calling it a coup).
Nevermind
So hope this backfires and everyone lays into these fuckers hard.
I haven’t wanted to pirate a game this much since Hogwarts.
