I spent some time trying to collect evidence linking Artia to the spam and abuse. I posted a comment about this in /r/VirtualYoutubers (Link for the comment), I will transcribe my comment but will redact somethings about past lifes/alts due to rule 2.
This comment is long so please take your time reading it.
Artia, livestreaming as the character connect to Hololive, says that she participated in a anti-Taiwan harrasment campaing and being proud of it, streamed May 20:

Wolf Warrior is a nationalist Chinese action movie that coined the term "Wolf Warrior Diplomacy" that is an aggressive and confrontational diplomacy used by Chinese diplomats (
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wolf_warrior_diplomacy).
Artia and Civia talked about the allegedly leaked Aqua Cover of “Take Over” that was used as a rally cry for the spammers to continue with their actions. I can't find any HololiveJP, HololiveEN, HololiveID talking about the song.

"FROM MY LIMITED MANDARIN: "These few days the traffic in the Vtuber section of NGA is even higher than the Genshin section, righteous men picking up the unicycle (the clown is using the unicycle, a symbol of sorts for the spammers I think), turning into 网暴man(probably meant spammer? ) for their beloved woman. 虫皇 (what the spammers call Coco), is this the world you want? I really like this sentence of yours, fxxk u and never come back. (Coco had this in her stream end card)"
Unicycle is the nickname for the spam bot, some machine translations also translate it to wheelbarrow.
