It was destined to be from the start.
Its a game made by the evil 4channers in complete mockery of a "deep, emotional" VN meant for progressives and gays, entirely starting based around wanting to fuck the characters and memes like Snoot saying "Goodbye" through going full Columbine. And without the nostalgia and "feel good" moments of games like Katawa Shoujo to give the TVT people deniability.
TVT is always Leftist politics first more than being a catalogue. Look at how many "creator" pages will have detailed sections of Right-wing controversies (or even non-troversies like just saying right wing things) versus Left-wing ones who've committed legitimate crimes. Or how many random villain pages link back to Trump as if his election was Hitler.
They have pages for worse stuff.
Or this for a more apt comparison.
The problem is that they don't want to give it exposure because Snoot game is geniunely good and makes some valid points (even if it gets satirical) that go against their echochamer of validating troons
Both games are deliberately allowed up to push the narrative of racism and homophobia being a rampant and constant threat in the 00s. Ethnic Cleansing is almost entirely there to dunk on and mock, while Class of 09 is one of those "claimed" games by the Gays who make up most of its fanbase.
Snoot Game has neither of those things. Its a legitimate game that is only vaguely "evil." Which will make it hard to turn into a dunk page, while also hard to either pretend its reclaimed or attack without dragging down the original.
Its just like Wikipedia, certain things will just get completely deleted to avoid uncomfortable discussions (Kodomo No Jikan used to have a very detailed TVT page) while others will get gutted and left up to pretend they aren't hiding anything but also preventing anyone else from creating something about it.
