He had the ability to own you.

To everyone saying "he should have/didn't have to apologize," I believe you are missing the point. You are right, he didn't HAVE to. He wanted to. He hurt people with his words. Should they or shouldn't they have been offended? That isn't the point. The only thing that was important to him was, "I said things that hurt people." Not why.. Not who was right or wrong.. Just that he unintentionally did, and he never meant for anyone to be hurt. He apologized only because he wanted to, not because he had to. That is the mark of a kind and warm soul, and one the world is a bit lesser for no longer having it. This video encapsulates his humanity and his legacy. He just cared for people. We need more like him. Rest well TFC. I hope we can make this world deserve people like you some day.

You can tell just from his voice how bad he feels for this. This is the most sincere apology ever. I don't think what he did was a big deal, but man what a mature thing to do.

As a man around your age; I understand how the world was back then compared to now. Don't feel bad. Feel good because you have evolved as well as I have.

"If you're into George or Jane, I don't care. If you want to bring their dog now that's a bit weird" - THIS MAN MUST BE PROTECTED AT ALL COSTS

So when Tinfoil grew up homosexuality was still illegal in all US states. That's what he grew up with. When he says people should be who they want to be, that's genuinely what made his generation legalise homosexuality. He made a statement trying not to bring up the issue _among other issues_ because he wanted to protect people from getting offended or hurt. Did you guys really bash him for that? Who the f**k bashed him for that? What's wrong with you? When you bash and hurt people who tries to protect you, what exactly do you think you gain? This isn't Mumbo Jumbo we're talking about, get some perspective people! Like I fully get that not wanting to talk about homosexuality because you want to avoid politics on your channel is treating some people's sexuality as "political" and thus it's offensive. I agree with that. But guys, this dude did not grow up with Grian or Gemini. Like, don't you guys get that during his formative years as a child people were sent to jail for having homosexual sex? He is clearly supportive!! My grandmother, even older than tinfoil, she was a progressive all her life. She was fighting for people's lives and rights, all her life. She was one of those people who were explicitly for homosexual rights, back when it was illegal. She supported gay marriage way before it was trending. Even when her husband and half her friends were catholic, she still raised her voice for homosexual rights. And I know that because I've heard catholics in my family bash her for it. Yet at the same time, my grandmother also said s**t like "homosexuals shouldn't kiss in public as it gross some people out". Like, things that just isn't seen as right to say today. But listen, she grew up during WW2, she experienced having gestapo ransacking her house after school three times, she had two uncles and one aunt who died in concentration camps because of their left-wing opinions. Homosexual sex wasn't legal here in Norway before she was _41 years_ old(and we legalised it before 48 out of 50 US states). Then when I asked my grandmother "if straight people kiss publicly, shouldn't they also be allowed to express their love in public" and she thought about it for some seconds and then admitted I was right. See I wasn't offended by what she said because I knew that she was from a different generation, so I just asked her to think about it and obviously when she did, she understood. I feel like it's the same with Tinfoil here. And the only people who are disrespectful, hurtful or hateful here are the people who didn't respect Tinfoil enough to express your opinion in a respectful way so as to not hurt his feelings. Because you clearly see it made him feel bad.

Whether there was a need to apologize or not aside, the fact that you were willing to own up to your mistakes like this speaks a lot about your character. You are not a bad person, and for as long as I've come to know you through your content, you never were. Your words and actions speak to that accord. Thank you for being the type of person that you are.

This is how public apologies should always be done. TFC was sorry for what he did, and he apologized for his actions. It takes a strong person to sincerely admit that what they said was wrong and that they are sorry. It never has to be anything more than that, and some people hating him for that is sad. He was a great man, rest in peace ❤️

I'm so terribly upset that there's people in the comments here that are COMPLETELY missing the point of this video. From what we know, TFC made this of his own Accord. Nobody tried to cancel him. Nobody is here on the edge of their seats being "offended and thin skinned" and such. the only people that seem to be hurt are people who are some reason upset that TFC apologized for saying something silly before. Now, a message for TFC: thank you for making this video, as a Trans, pansexual person, I fully accept your apology, as do most of the people in the comments. Thank you for making it without being promoted, it wasn't necessary, but it's incredibly reassuring. The actions of 10 years ago don't define a man.

Thank you TFC. Honestly, as a member of the LGBTQ+ community, I personally didn't feel too offended by your original comments as I understand that social acceptance of these topics and personal opinions change. I am just grateful that you apologised and that your opinion on this topic has changed.

This is a really touching apology. This was an opinion from a decade ago that tbh wasn’t exactly uncommon at the time, Making the effort to put this out shows how much you’ve grown as a person, and it’s heartwarming to me to see how much you do really care about our community.

Thank you. I wasn’t offended, didn’t know, but after hearing both your side and Xisuma’s additional information, thank you. Ten years ago, I was a different person, and I have apologized for things I have said and done too. Apologizing shows your heart. Even if you didn’t intend anything, you still apologize, because you care about how people are affected, and that is beautiful. Take care of yourself, and I hope you are well.

the first time i heart of TFC was hearing of his passing in Grian's POV this is the second thing i've learned about him and i can truly say that i'm a fan. He didn't try to justify it. He didn't get angry. he just fixed it, explained his headspace at the time and apologized. 10/10

Came from X's video on the subject I'm proud of/for you TFC 💜 People weren't beating down your door with torches and pitchforks, but you stepped out and threw the lamp onto your own self anyway. This apology is sincere and you can tell it from your voice alone. I think the people who have been hating in the comments seem to forget we ALL have a past. We've ALL said and done stupid or hurtful things in the past. What is important is that we learned from it and did our best to correct it. You are a good man Chef, I know from experience that our own minds can often be pur worst enemy, so I'll leave off with a reminder not to beat yourself up about this. You changed and you habe sincerely tried to make amends via this video and other actions 💜 you man

​@@SspaceB people learn, grow, and change. Back when TFC made those comments, people just genuinely didn't understand members of the LGBTQAIP+ community, and now today, as a group, we have grown to understand each other and to love each other despite differences. When confronted with people who are different than one's self, its easy to jump to hatred and anger, but with knowledge and wisdom comes the realization that we are all are fellow humans here and we all deserver being treated as such. The pursuit of acceptance over hatred and love over anger is not some "fanatic" generational uprising, its a sign that as humans all over the world, we have all learned to love and accept one another more, despite the differences in who we feel romantic attraction to or how we see our gender identity. TFC held views in the past that were hateful because he didn't understand, now that he has learned and grown as an individual he better sympathizes with his fellow humans, regardless of who they are and that is impressive. Truly something to respect, the ability to learn, grow, and move on from our past mistakes.

Don't let any of the naysayers get you down, what you said may have been wrong, but it takes a truly good and honest man to come out and publicly apologize like this, and I for one respect that

Black people call themselves "niggers" and also realize that they are not trying to offend each other for being black. Declaring people who say "That's gay" as homophobic, even though they were not trying to express any hatred towards gay people will not improve the public's relationship with homosexuals, it will actually worsen it. In fact, LGBT acceptance is dropping at an alarming rate, mostly exactly for this reason.

To those who saw this now deleted post remember that good people are defined not just by their past, but, their willingness to accept change, figure out how to incorporate that into their life, and how they treat others in general. To those who haven't seen it, it was a thing, it isn't anymore move on. Good people won't drag up the past to let you in on some secret or anything. TFC said enough here that you have enough of a context to know what was said if you really need to to. To everyone, know that apologies(especially public ones) are a good first step to letting others know you realize what you said/did hurt someone else and you don't want that to get in the way of how others think of you going forward. Let TFC's actions going forward guide your continued opinions of the individual. And finally to TFC, it takes a lot of personal courage and integrity to apologize and mean it. Deleting that post so it can never come up again nor hurt someone else again, not that it was your original intent, is a good thing. Happy creating and healthy growing.

@@seppforcher4714 Funny, the one person who's throwing a tantrum about someone having non-radical political views here is you.

It says a lot about a persons character to look back and say, "I was wrong". No matter how old we get it is important that we keep growing as individuals. Well done Chef, I'm sure I can speak for the lot of us when I say that you are forgiven. Looking forward to your next video and a successful season 8!

I know many KZreadrs who say similar things and don't take these opinions back, and instead just reiterate them more to attempt to prove their point, or to put whoever they're offending down. I'm glad you didn't go down this route, recognized the err of what you may have done over a decade ago, and made amends. Try not to feel too bad about this whole situation, though, as it *was* a decade ago, which to most Hermitcraft viewers, is greater than half of their lifespan. It's good you've taken action to make sure you didn't offend anyone, but I'm serious about the part about not beating yourself up. Every other day, another KZreadr has some dark secret of their past exposed, and this "secret" of your past isn't even dark-- just something that probably needed adressing nowadays. Even though this was probably pretty distressing to you, do your best to cheer yourself up, as you did the right thing, and you haven't been doing anything wrong related to this for the past 10 years now. Cheer up mate, don't beat yourself up, and have a nice day.

This is what apologies are supposed to be like, sincere and polite. 11/10 apology video.

You went out your way to say this by yourself and the comments were made 10 years ago, people can change their views and you seem very genuine with this. Thank you for posting this video and good luck with season 8!

Hi TFC. I'm a new viewer in the Hermitcraft community so I don't know you nor did I see the blog. But from what you have said and what I assume your age to be, I want to say kudos to you for your stance and your flexibility as the world has changed around you. We should all expect that the world will change in a decade, what's "acceptable" to the public will change in a decade, and our own and each other's viewpoints will grow and change in a decade. Those of us who are young and are brought up in the new ways have it easier. Those who are older have the challenge of being flexible, and you have managed that. You have looked into the past, seen that a past version of you was documented and doesn't look so great today, and you have declared your change. Maybe someone out there needed the apology as a part of their healing, but I think it's more about declaring that you are a different, improved person now, and here's how. It's hard when people see you for what you were, not what you are. So I want to say I support your efforts, your integrity, and your flexibility. I wish more people were like you.

The apology is really appreciated and its really good that you deleted the harmful words but people really do need to stop bringing stuff up from years and years a go 10 years is a Whole decade, you've learned better and you never meant to hurt anyone and thats what really matters, good on you for addressing it anyway, hope you feel better.

I'm relatively new as a Hermitcraft fan, and hadn't heard about this at all until this vid showed up in my recommends. At first I was delaying watching it since from its title I thought it might be a normal episode, and I'm trying to watch them all in order. But then I discovered xisuma's Xisuma Says channel where he talked a little about how this came about. I'm still a relatively new fan, but from the streams I've watched/listened to so far he doesn't really seem the type to make things up or blow things out of proportion. When he starts one of his explainy-tangents, he seems to actually put thought and analysis into what he says. So even though I really don't know the actual situation, I feel inclined to believe him on those points. So then, realizing this video wasn't a regular episode, I wanted to see it next time I remembered to, to get a better idea what's going on. After watching this, I still don't have a lot of details about what actually happened, but from the things you did mention, it sounds like this is a very reasonable and well-accomplished apology. Not at all like the fake and hollow "apologies" celebrities or companies sometimes do when they have PR issues. You seem to be a very kind and caring person, and I applaud you for that, and look forward to getting to know your personality better as I continue watching your Hermitcraft videos, and possibly eventually branching out to see some of your other content. As I mentioned, your apology does not sound unconvincing in the least. As a note for further improvement, if you ever find yourself needing to make a similar apology in the future (we can always hope it won't be needed, but you never know what ten more years' experience might teach us might have been less good that we say or do today) it might be even more betterer if you also go into a little bit about *how* what had been said or done is hurtful, and make clear that you understand what to be working on to avoid making the same mistakes. Being human, we're all bound to make new mistakes over time, but the best way to avoid re-making old mistakes is to understand why the old mistake was a mistake, as well as how to avoid re-making it. Similarly, as far as I know so far, the best and most effective apologies not only show sincerity, but also demonstrate the effort to understand this and the effort to work to improve. To clarify again: this was not a bad apology. From my limited understanding of the situation it sounds like a very good one. It is specifically *because* you sound like such an awesome person, that I wanted to give you this tip I've absorbed somewhere to help you be even better in the future. :-)

@@nrishiee5231 It is homophobic because literally nobody ever tells heterosexuals to keep their sexuality private. The closest is criticism of gratuitous public displays of affection, but that's different from one's sexuality. Nobody is out here asking the straights to hide their preferences in public, nor would it be okay to ask that. What TFC said, while not ill-intentioned, was wrong-minded and harmful, though I wouldn't call it homophobic. Not perceiving anything wrong with what TFC said, however... either reduces to the same error, or, having had the error explained, is simple homophobia. So don't worry, mate. It's okay to struggle.

This is only the second video of yours that I have watched and I would just like to say: It takes a lot of courage to stand up in front of a community to apologize and acknowlede the hurt you have caused. Thank you! You are a beautful human being :) I wish you all the best with your projects for this season!

It was not meant to hurt people's feelings. I can hear you're genuinely sorry for what happened. You did the right thing here.

So I actually came here from the Xisumasays video to see what was happening for myself- TFC I think you handled this really well:) it doesn’t mean much coming from me because I didn’t see what happened and I was four at the time of the original post but good on you for making one of the most genuine apology videos on KZread

Masterclass apology. As an old guy I understand how the original comment's intent may have been lost in the wording.

I don’t know why but some people seem like they are against apologizing, honestly in my opinion being able to apologize, and admit that you may have messed up is a really awesome thing to do it shows how mature you are, even if the thing you are apologizing for was an accident.

As a long time Hermitcraft viewer and a member of the queer community, it's fine, we all make mistakes or said things we never intended to offend people with. As long as you are sincere and have changed, I feel you deserve to be forgiven. Hope you have a great day and can't wait to see your next episode.

TFC, you were the first hermit I discovered. You, with your quirky personality and passion exposed me to an amazing community. Having been a long time viewer of yours, I know that you don't always word things the way you want them to actually sound, and I think that this apology, completely undemanded and unknown by the community, shows how you have truly changed, grown and learned. Please keep being the amazing you that you are, and don't let this one thing get you down.

Dear TFC, I must admit that I barely ever watch your videos. I only know you through hermitcraft, and there are way too many of you to follow. But I do watch sometimes, because you are still valid, and deserve success and attention because you're trying and doing well. And in a way, that is very similar to the LGBTQ community. You're different from the way more (hyper)active people like Grian or Stress, and interact less with the others. But you are you. And that makes you valid. As a part of the LGBTQ community myself, I do not care about what you thought, or did. Everybody makes mistakes, whether intentional or not, especially if it was long ago when things were different. And acknowledging these, and changing for the better shows that you are doing good. So please do not feel too bad. Know that in your heart. We all grow, we're all human.

I don't know whaat you said 10 years ago, but it is always good to apologise for bad things in your past. (I came from X's video)

It's clear it wasn't necessarily easy to make this apology, and may as say as an lgbt person, the apology is sincerely accepted

Writing characters or topics outside your experience is always a can of worms (age, race, sexuality, gender, culture, beliefs). I think there's merits in both writers trying to get others' perspective right and avoiding it when they can't.

TFC. It is clear in this video that you offered a sincere apology because an old post could potentially offend people. You took accountability and offered an apology and ensured the post could cause no more harm. I can tell that it was an issue close to your heart in the way you spoke and want to thank you for your sincerity. I was not personally affected by this, but I would hope that those who were are able to accept this apology. To all those attacking or spouting cancel culture, use some common sense. Those who this apology does not apply to do not know the full context. And you can tell this apology is coming from the right place and had not been pressured or forced by the mob mentality of cancel culture. Learning to grow and change, especially from an opinion held 10 years ago, is proof that we can do better. And TFC, you're doing great. The right thing at the right time. Well done and thank you for your honesty and accountability.

I don’t know what exactly you wrote ten years ago, but I personally accept this apology. You recognized you made a mistake and said you were sorry, you explained yourself. I hope you’re doing well, TFC! I love your videos♥️

It’s all good man, everyone makes mistakes sometimes. The world was a different place 10 years ago, and I’m sorry that this happened to you, but thank you for the genuine apology, and we will continue to support you!

Am I the only one shocked by that he's so brave to admit his mistake and learn from it? Sure it happened a decade ago, but the past is the past. Sadly there are comments saying it's weak or cowardly to apologize, but I think it's weak to tear others down for doing something brave in order to feel better. I wouldn't have been brave enough to do what you just did, and regardless of the fact that I've never actually watched your videos ( and can't remember your name for 5 seconds ), I want you to know I'll support you where I can, because people this brave should be supported.

Publicly admitting to a mistake requires courage and a good heart. Thank you TFC! You're doing your best to be a good person, and I respect that.

Its strong of you to apologize even if it was an old thing. I think it shows a good sense of character and that you care about your words and their influence, not all people do that and it is really important. Please keep up your work.

No need to feel down. The fact that this has been brought up now just means someone had been looking for it. I am a member of the LGBT+ community and I have had to accept that the internet is a place where it is forgotten that people can change and learn.

It takes a lot of moral character to come forward and make an apology like this. I sincerely respect your bravery in coming forward and owning your past mistakes and doing what you can to make it right today. I don't know the exact words you said in the past, but from what you said today I can tell you have changed since then. You don't deserve any hatred, you're only human after all. Thank you for this video

I didn’t know about this but I’m glad you posted this. It takes courage to admit past mistakes. I accept your apology as as a member of the rainbow, for what it’s worth. I hope you feel better soon.

Something that younger generations often don't realize is that we are also a product of our environment (nature and nurture). TFC grew up in an very different time to many of his fans. I'm not sure where he's from, but during his lifetime people were most likely still being put in jail for simply being gay. Yes, that was a crime not that long ago. Just because someone is older than you doesn't mean they aren't learning and growing every day. I'm sure many of you could look back 10 years and find something you now regret.

The fact that he can and will admit that he made a mistake, or that his point of view was outdated, shows alot of growth for someone in his generation.

this brought me to tears, this is genuinely very sweet and highly appreciated, i believe for such a long ago occurrence it might've not been necessary to be addressed, however it still speaks so highly of you because you deemed it worth enough to bring up and apologize for, thanks for it TFC, keep it up!
