The changes to this all sound fine and good but let’s be honest, who really trusts Twitch to enforce this properly? This category existing at all opens it up to abuse by bigots who WILL use it as a weapon against LGBTQ/POC/female streamers who they think being forced to recognize the existence of is “too political” and you’re either extremely stupid or extremely naive if you think that won’t be a problem. At the end of the day they still have the power to decide what they think is too far (which again, is basically everything) and it’s hard to trust that the moderation team is up to the task of properly filtering out all the false reports this will inevitably bring about, so imo the best option is to simply not have a loophole that can be exploited to silence others so easily and completely remove that point
