I mean, it's a blip but they were trying.

The gist of it seems to be a few Chinese gamers are upset that Black Myth: Wukong didn't win game of the year and combined with a bad translation made it seem like Sven, who was presenting, instead of his anti-greed speech was translated into basically saying that he knew who was going to win, like he knew beforehand, and game sales aren't important, and some took that ask he was mocking Black Myth for not winning.

Just language barriers and general gamer stupidity all around.

Is that with Steam's "recent off-topic activity" system turned on, or off?

Steam introduced something where if they see a large scale of reviews in a short period that express thoughts unrelated to the game itself, they exclude those reviews from the default view of the page.

It's actually from mistranslations that made it appear like Sven was saying wukong is a cash grab

They did, but this is so little of a blip, it might not have even triggered.
