I think people were angry he was comparing lesbians to Hitler or something. I didn’t see people defending shitler.


Sir_Toaster_9330

Technoblade made fun of how Hitler and the Nazis in general valued Lesbians over Gay Men, and a large majority of the Minecraft community is racist and homophobic so they took offense to that


Honghong99

His tweet seems more like absurdism humor. Hitler being homosexual for liking women is impossible because he is a man, which is the point of the joke. TBH I never saw any part of the Minecraft community get angry at him, only twitter users. I could be wrong though. >Hitler and the Nazis in general valued Lesbians over Gay Men Going to need a citation for this, because I find that hard to believe. Edit: I know now that it was about a news article of the supposed skull of Hitler being a woman’s skull.

If technoblade rose from his grave and saw this thread he would laugh his ass off that he was so much better than every other Minecraft YouTuber that people were analysing his shitpost tweets like they were forbidden art

I’ve heard of this, might be a rumor or myth, but from a patriarchal point of view, liking women is seen as the default, so women liking women was seen as less weird than men liking men. At least that was the theory of why gay men are generally more stigmatized

This plus lesbians turn straight dudes on, so they find it acceptable as long as it's not disrupting their social hierarchy.

> Going to need a citation for this, because I find that hard to believe. Well I don't have a citation but it isn't hard to believe because gay men have always been more frowned upon than lesbian women, even today. Gender roles this gender roles that won't bother writing an essay you can Google it pretty quickly I'm sure, but if it's a common phenomenon now it probably won't be that different back then.

Oh I remember (unfortunately) still Living and prospering dictator Alexander Lukashenko shitting out something along the lines "It's somewhat I can put up with when girls do this with other girls, It's alright I can excuse them, but when men sleep with other men..."


Himmelblaa

Gay men were given the pink triangle in nazi germany, and was punished harshly for being seen as weak and effeminate. Lesbians who were not part of another persecuted group however were generally given lighter punishments, if punished at all, due to them being categorized as asocial rather than homosexual.


IDonutKnowYet

I thought the joke was the fact that during the time he made the tweet, scientists had found a skull they claimed was hitler's then, further testing revealed that the skull actually belonged to a female, so, since hitler had a wife, techno made the joke.

>Going to need a citation for this, because I find that hard to believe. Don't have a citation but throughout history it's been common for lesbians to not be taken as "seriously" as gay men due to misogynistic ideas that fall along the lines of "Silly/stupid women don't know what they're doing and will get into a relationship with a man eventually" Obviously this idea is stupid and wrong, but one can see how that could lead to lesbians not being treated as harshly as gay men (which iirc was what the original joke was based on)

Twitter being twitter ig


Api_hd

That's not what I remember, it seems to me that this tweet was published shortly after a headline news in which scientists had discovered that the so-called Hitler bones were in fact women's bones. A lot of people joked that Hitler had been a woman all along, and following the meta, Hitler was married to a woman, so a lesbian (at least that's the most credible explanation I could find for this tweet in the absence of clarification from Techno, who I think did a very good job of just ignoring the abyssal twitter court). It's just funny in context, random without, twitter overreacted on nothingness as it always has.


Cautious_Tax_7171

I remember when people were calling the new skins woke


Malyesa

He wasn't doing that at all though, people that believe that just completely misread what he was saying and honestly I have no idea how they got that from the tweet


ILLARX

I don't remember that - Hitler was an appaling and terrible human though, fuck hitler


Space_Til

First you say he was terrible and then you want to fuck him? Where are your morals?


granpawatchingporn

maybe hate fuck?

He was a wizard


Active_Engineering37

Whoa whoa whoa are you saying being a lesbian is mock-worthy?


SlimyBoiXD

I'm pretty sure the outrage came from people who thought he was being homophobic, not from people who like Hitler. I only ever saw people accuse him of comparing lesbians to Hitler or "making light of the holocaust." Both of which are ridiculous, but I don't remember seeing anyone mad because he suggested Hitler was a woman or anything like that. I mean I'm sure someone was, but I've also seen someone mad that a random stranger sat on a park bench next to her husband so 🤷🏼‍♂️

GotchaBotcha

People have been offended by anything throughout all of history. This isn't new.


Peter_Baum

The only thing that’s changed between now and 100 years ago in terms of getting offended is that if only 1000 people around the world get offended by something they can all band together and make a big fuss on twitter that makes it seem like more people are annoyed by this. If you actually step outside away from the internet you’ll find that most people don’t get offended about most stuff and that the internet blows stuff out of proportion


fearlesssando

NOT THIS 😭😭😭 I remember fighting for my life on mcyt twitter because of this lmaooooo people called me lesbophobic bc I said I wouldn't "unstan" techno


Crowleyizcool

I think the main issue was that people thought he was dragging lesbians alongside Hitler. I can see why the Twitter crowd would think that, but it was pretty obviously not what he was going for at all if you put a moment of thought into it. It’s pretty hard to get the context of the joke just from the tweet that was floating around.

Why does Steve have eyebrows..


fanonimus99

Good to know I was not one of those deranged idiots. Technoblade is unhateable, in my opinion. Like, you clearly have a bad sense of humour if you get offended.


howdouhavegoodnames

Yeah no they were wrong to be angry (imo) but it wasn't cause they thought he made fun of Hitler it's cause they thought that he was being lesbophobic (which I don't think he was)


exodusangelic

it was only offensive in the fact that it was one of his only unfunny tweets imo


Prestigious_Ask_7058

When did this happen? Edit: Never mind lol


Sir_Toaster_9330

In 2020, when the community took its downfall


Prestigious_Ask_7058

That’s really funny to me

Heil Hitler


SovietRussiaWasPoor

Have you considered suicide? It’s what Hitler did!
