    you can’t judge a man based on his political opinions

    Yes you can.

    Also you can really tell when someone isn’t personally impacted by “politics” at all. Clearly not his rights up for debate.

      I would argue it’s one of the more important things about a person

      But hot damn do they vehemently act like white men’s rights are what’s up for debate whenever they catch whiff that the game dev might NOT be a Republican.

      The internet crashed the fuck out hard when Wolfenstein dared to criticize the internet’s only group that’s above criticism, let alone mockery: nazis.

      you just know that conservatives who say that shit absolutely judge people by their politics if they’re vaguely left leaning

      i know hypocrisy criticisms are pointless, but it still fucking annoys me

      It is always people who have vile and reprehensible political opinions who thinks that.

    you should respect that it’s Scott’s choice to donate

    While they refuse to respect someone’s right to not play his game over this donation.

    not everyone who donates to Republican is a bigot

    doubt

        I mean, it would be one thing if we learned that the FNAF creator was a bigot recently. But this has been known for years.

    FNAF is a good example of a mostly younger audience and now obnoxious they can be when defending whatever it is they’re a fan of. They act like you just insulted their best friend.

    And I should know because I was definitely an annoying fanboy arguing in anime forums as a teen.

      Five Nights At Freddie’s, a super popular indie horror game (series). First game came out in 2014. It was very popular with let’s players and kids, kinda stayed the same over time. Mostly a zoomer or even younger thing I guess. Its waned in recent years though. There was a movie too.

    These are the same people who will see red and DM death threats to developers under the slightest possible hint they wish anything less than genocide on anyone who isn’t a white man btw.

    I know a lot of people grew up with it, but I just don’t get caring about FNAF anymore.

    It fell off, the lore doesn’t make sense, I was still trying to keep up with it through Game Theory videos a few years ago and it’s clear Scott had/has no plan and is just milking the thing.

    “not everyone who supports Republicans is a bigot”

    2 sentences later

    “just accept that there are people with different views”

    Extremely good-faith dialog

      I like how they have to reduce it down to “different views” as if it the questions were in the vein of “What flavor of ice cream is the best” and not “Should trans people remain alive.”
