And the snake continues to eat at it's own tail.
Yep, Milo is a tabloid rag writer at heart. I mean, literally he owned a tabloid in England that was forced to shut down.
He knows what sells and takes advantage of stupid people to get it done.
as obvious as the "I found this interesting story *posts breitbart link*"
It's really sad how few people want to read on a discussion forum.
Adam Baldwin is a particularly-shitty conservative and has had no issues throwing his nonsense around with no issues. It has been really entertaining to see the people who claim that liberals love playing the victim go out there and whine about how conservatives are unfairly picked on.

"I'm just throwing articles out there for debate - I never said I agreed with it - I just found it interesting!"
"Again, just asking questions"
absolutely. Like i get people having jokes etc, but when its malcious to the levels of doxing people etc its insane. I wish most of these popular sites just took a moral stand over profits and stopped being so scared to address race.
The most disappointing people(companies) that are staunchly moderate they never rarely try to take a stand unless they cant cover their ears anymore, some shit just isnt worth having around if its not about advancing humanity and reflecting values of being a virtuous good person.

and it's not like he's some super privileged trust fund baby who has spent his entire lofe living in luxury. there's so much cool shit I would do of i had a couple billion dollars. but notch decides to be a fucking gamergater. it's pathetic.
The greatest lie ever told to america was that race baiting was an invention from left. It has been a right ideal as much as guns and patriotism, the issue is that many times they will mention race implicitly instead of explicitly and play the game of I didnt say it directly even though me and you both know what the hell they meant.
seriously its the thing that upsets me more than anything. People make so much fucking money that they just pretty much hoard it, I wish more billionares were like buffet and gates than some of these other guys that really do very little with the vast amount of wealth.
I think this is the year I look to try and amass some amount of wealth and try to give back in meaningful ways.

He is so hot 😍
Did you ever think there was more to life than being really, really, really, ridiculously good looking?

He claims her protrayal in the film is racist, yet encouraged harrasment (which natually meant racist/sexist comments and pics) and now labels Twitter as a haven for BLM? Hahaha!
Just a shame that this won't solve anything.

Unfortunately that comes first everytime.
If you're not, then be prepared to bust your ass and become a successful, balding entrepreneur at age 35.
Is it kinda sad that I long for the days when the right got their news from Fox News? I mean, I know Fox is pretty biased but it's nothing compared to the likes of briebart and drudge. At least when Fox was shady there was some truth or merit in their report, if you really squinted. Not so with these alt right sites. Fear mongering, racism, and sexism seem to be what pays their bills, and boy are they good at it.
"I'm not a bigot or a miserable person but I will support bigotry and miserable people on the internet, but I'm totally nice I swear".
That's pretty unfortunate.
More like, "I'm rich enough to not care about what people think since their hurt feelings can't affect my living, but I still care a small bit about how people perceive me."

Too bad the shit he supports is affecting peoples day to day life in a negative way, but he can't see it. Fuck you, got mine, seems to be his mindset.

Does he literally sit alone in his mansion every day and eat candy while waiting for something to happen on Twitter? The way he's always on top of shit like this, it makes me wonder.
"I support a harassment campaign that targets people I know in real life, but the people who say I'm bigoted and miserable are just making shit up. I don't care what anyone thinks about me.

I love that his first defense whenever he's accused of racism is to emphasize how much sex he has with black men, as though it's anything but depressingly common for racists to fetishize nonwhite bodies.

It's a shame about Notch. He could've done so much good with his influence.
At least Milo is off Twitter though.
At least Milo is off Twitter though.
You know, where he writes that he was encouraged by people within the industry who couldn't speak publicly, I believe him.
Always got the feeling the obliviousness of the industry was more than just indifference or apathy. Wouldn't surprise me at all that a lot more major developers than we think were either happy to ignore the shit GG was doing, or even felt empowered by it.
I saw the link to the discourse and as far as I understand, "mansplaining" is what happens when men talk over or for women about issues related or important to them. And he turns it into a misandry issue? Wat
Notch deleted the pro-GG tweet and is now pivoting:

He made up "cuntfusing" as an equivalent term. But he's not bigoted at all, no sir.

I wish No Man's Sky and Dragon Quest Builders would totally absorb the Minecraft crowd just as a fuck you to Notch.
He's harmless and probably is just trying to find a way to do what he thinks is the "right thing" while also fighting the urge to be a giant shit-stirring troll (an urge that he often fails to suppress).
He's certainly not "the worst".
Milo is the worst.

Notch has nothing to do with Minecraft anymore. Game is in Microsofts hands now.

I know.
I still want his lone accomplishment to diminish in popularity due to the creator (who is no longer involved) being a piece of shit.

It's not. There were people in the industry who supported GamerGate, some openly, others in secret. It's completely possible that some assholes in the industry are supporting him (maybe even the same assholes in that article), but are too cowardly to do so publicly.
I would say those people are in the minority and wouldn't have been tolerated in the workplace. thankfully. unfortunately it just takes a minority to make people feel vindicated.

Wait a second! You're telling me Milo is gay? An alt-right, gamergater, Trump-lovin', Breitbart bloggin', ultra conservative gay man? That doesnt compute!
Yep. He's the deranged type who'd probably cheer as his "allies" strap him down, slather on the conductive paste, hook him up to the electrodes, and turn on the voltage.
I would love to hear an explanation of what is funny about himI think he's kinda funny, but gets too cringeworthy when he tries to be edgy (which is very frequent).
He brought this on himself, though. ¯\_(ツ_/¯
it's sad, but intensely self-hating gay men are nothing new

For you and everyone who takes this as a genuine confession. This is sarcasm. I assume this is the result of making a statement that was taken as a GG argument and then having people dogpile on him.
Just go through the rest of his replies there, but he is making it clear precisely for the people who are quick to judge:
https://twitter.com/notch/status/705904528147685376
You, and many of the people that are responding to your link is the exact reason he is reacting like that. A statement is taken out of context or exaggerated and then people start to immediately dogpile on him and accuse him of things, which he refers to as the SJWs. It must be frustrating.
Notch says and does plenty of things I disagree with, but I don't think he is completely off the deep end.
EDIT:
And for the people who thinks he likes Milo or something, because again, they are quick to judge:

He takes the standpoint of wanting complete free speech which is why he goed for #FreeMilo. Which again, is something I disagree with, but I wouldn't say it makes him crazy.
