what is it with gamers and persecution complexes

Oh boy, Notch is one giant persecution complex. That news article mentions some bullshit where he like evangelises for Heterosexual Pride Day or some shit, he's gotten buttmad about like Reddit not giving him a platform so he did an AMA on 8chan or 2chan, one of the especially bad ones - and a couple years ago, he expressed regret at selling Mojang and he whined about none of his old friends in the company talking to him any more, and how even though he goes to all these awesome parties in Ibiza and has all this money, he's never really fulfilled and he feels hollow and sad inside.

I actually kind of sympathized with him on that last part, only to the point where petty riches don't lead to emotional fulfillment, but even back then my outlook was "ofc no one at Mojang talks to you, you sold them to Microsoft for millions of dollars". Though there's probably a lot of nuance that my statement misses in the process.

One of our generation's biggest games, with a global reach and wide demographic, was made by a fucking redpilled neckbeard - and now that he doesn't have anything to do with the product that made him a household name, he shitposts about anti-white conspiracies and plays the victim when he entertains platforms full of avowed white nationalists and pedophiles. He's an asshole and I hope that his lack of relevance eats him alive.
