Saudis also use twitch a lot in an indirect way - lots of sportswashing investments including esports which includes twitch deals. LGBTQ+ is pretty controversial as far as global politics are concerned. It seems like people in the West often forget there's only a handful of countries that don't immediately jail or kill you for these things worldwide.
I'm not gonna contest that there's an unfortunate number of countries where it's illegal to be LGBTQ+. However it's not "just a handful" where it's legal, stop talking out of your ass.
Go look for yourself if you want to see where it's actually illegal. Not on my short list of vacation spots. https://www.humandignitytrust.org/lgbt-the-law/map-of-criminalisation/
