From some other articles I saw, it appears that the devs of this game saw some youtube reaction videos of people saying spiders are scary, so they created an arachnophobia mode for anyone who's too big of a pussy to play the game the normal way.

They probably sent out a press release about it and, as usual, Klepek had to make it political. SJWs are like the HOA of the gaming community. They just want more stupid rules and regulations so things fit their gentrified vision of what "looks good" - and in the process they ban all manner of creativity and choice.
