TL;DR - if you have this exception then you probably have plugins on your server that shade in GSON libraries without renaming their packages (their jar contains the folder path com/google/json which may be possible to delete to solve the problem, but not in all cases).
Plugins doing this were inadvertantly causing errors with unrelated plugins that format text.
examples: NuVotifier shades this library without relocation but it has been fixed in a Dev Build DiscordSRV previously did this but a new release has fixed the bug recently
You should update any affected plugins to resolve the issue.

This is unrelated to GHSA-848q-2vxp-759r which is a separate issue inadvertantly found when trying to research the cause of this issue,
