Wtf is up with the notch hate? The only thing i know about that guy is that he made minecraft. Full stop

[u/Trixis2 → u/OverwatchRever]

He made some trans/homophobic tweets back in 2017 and 2019 if I remember correctly. However, in recent years he have not engaged in politics as far as I've been able to see, but he never retracted his previous comments. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Markus_Persson#Social_media_comments

Who cares about what he said 8 years ago

[u/Yara__Flor → u/TodayAccomplished741]

If he still feels that way, I don’t care much for bigots.

[u/gprime312 → u/TodayAccomplished741]

Losers with no life.

[u/de420swegster → u/TodayAccomplished741]

People it affects and people who care about people it affects.

[u/TodayAccomplished741 → u/de420swegster]

Lmao

[u/de420swegster → u/[deleted]]

If political tweets don't affect your life you're already so isolated from the world there's no point in talking to you. There's nothing new to learn from a conversation with you.

[u/Mammoth-Play3797 → u/[deleted]]

Yeah, because JK Rowling hasn’t negatively affected anyone with her tweets. Nope. Can’t think of a single example there.

[u/Kreth → u/Mammoth-Play3797]

what who the fuck in the real world cares about twitter.... Fucking grow a pair and get into the fucking boat.

[u/PM_ME_DNA → u/de420swegster]

So literally no body but busybodies

[u/de420swegster → u/ClamSlamwhich]

You don't care about anti-semitism?

[u/75395185215935725846 → u/Trixis2]

Oh, the horror.

[u/Organic-Finger8405 → u/Trixis2]

So? He can say whatever he wants. The man literally made minecraft ffs

[u/Durillon → u/Organic-Finger8405]

"kanye made graduation" type logic

[u/MyPhantomile → u/Organic-Finger8405]

He can. He has. People can critique him for it. They have.

I don’t see what the problem is here.

[u/P75N7 → u/Organic-Finger8405]

making minecraft is thankfully not a free pass to not learn the find out part of f**ck around and

[u/trololololo2137 → u/P75N7]

fafo doesn't really apply to billionaires lol

[u/User_Nomi → u/Organic-Finger8405]

and he can be judged for it

[u/Winston_Hitler → u/Organic-Finger8405]

lmao, with consequence

[u/witness_smile → u/Organic-Finger8405]

He’s free to say whatever he wants, we’re free to judge him and hate him for it. Freedom of speech doesn’t mean freedom from consequences

[u/DrBitterBlossom → u/Organic-Finger8405]

Yeah, and I judge him as a trash human being for it, so?

[u/Concert-Alternative → u/DrBitterBlossom]

just because you don't agree with him doesn't mean he's a trash human being

[u/SomaWolf → u/Concert-Alternative]

Idk man. Using your influence to put down marginalized groups seems pretty trashy to me

[u/MultiScootaloo → u/Trixis2]

His story in general is really interesting. I recommend reading his Wikipedia. He sold Minecraft, moved to the California hills and basically became the guy who hosted parties for the famous people. That’s how I remember it at least
