Why context is important

“matpat gave the pope undertale” sounds way different than “matpat met the pope while representing the YouTube gaming community and it’s customary to give the pope a gift that’s reflective of the culture your represent and he chose undertale, a game about choices, consequences and reflect and peace/love”

Yeah, “matpat met the pope while representing the YouTube gaming community” is actually even more ridiculous so I’m not sure context makes this one better

it makes sense in context but the context makes no sense

The context was that there was a global panel and the topic was how the internet brings people together. It’s customary to bring the pope a gift reflecting the culture you are chosen to represent. Mat pat was chosen to represent YouTube gaming culture. The gift that reflects it was undertale which he gave symbolically because it’s a game about peacefull fighting and overcoming prejudices to the pope who supports the lgbt community and actually helps people.
