Seems reasonable that they don't want to allow players to push their politics using the official Blizzard streams. They are free to do so in their spare time.

What do you think Blizzard would do if some guy wore a MAGA hat in an official stream?

Into your message is built the assumption that all "politics" is the same.

That's not the case. And further, pretending that oppression and fascism and ethnic cleansing is the same as fighting against those things, because oppressing and murdering people is just another "politics" and not something special, is by itself pro-fascist and evil stance.

Not really: there are politics I agree with and politics I disagree with. That doesn't mean that I believe Blizzard should give a loudspeaker to those who agree with me. I think that's stupid because it could turn against me at some point. Some people seem not to think ahead.
