TFC's was probably the most sincere apology I've seen in the internet. No evident script, no fake tears, just genuine apologies from someone who had changed. Hell, he didn't even have to bother with that video. He could've just deleted that stuff from his site and never mention it again. It was ten years ago, he knew he had changed. Instead, he went through the trouble of apologising. I do think he should have apologized, I appreciate the fact that he did, and I appreciate it even more that it was so genuine. But exactly the fact that no mob was coming after him makes it even more special· he didn't have to. It was no threat to his career. He did though.

The Norwegian system seems to match with my comment, they have to acknowledge their previous mistakes, attempt to make amends by completing their sentence, can choose to better themselves through opportunities offered by the prison, and seems to all contribute to less rates of re-offending ex-convicts. You seem to be getting at the crux of rehabilitation vs punishment. If you believe that people should be punished for committing crimes, no matter what degree/reason, then offering them any "redemption" is impossible, so death is all to look forward to. Whereas, people acknowledging their crimes, attempting to change, maybe have a better outcome out of prison, AND have a system that rehabilitates people, seems to lead to less re-offending criminals. Now for murder, might have to depend on the situation. Serial killer, maybe beyond rehab. Maybe they could be persuaded to help police. Most criminals aren't serial killers.

Individuals who are transgender have an identity different from what society's expectation is based on their sex. A trans man has never been a woman, even if he has a vagina. A trans woman has never been a man even if she has a penis. If your gender and sex align themselves, great! If they don't, also great!

Rash? Hasty? Preemptive? Far fetched? Sure. Crazy? Not really. What is crazy is judging people based on what they said ten years ago. There's been many such cases in the past and people are worried about this being another one. TFC already has it tough compared to other hermits. Losing him because of cancel culture is a legitimate worry and it would be a huge shame since TFC is a person who was an adult long before this whole lgbtq+ movement was invented. I'm not saying that's what happened, just explaining the thought process, why people reacted the way they did. The commenters did not have full context. Yes, they should have asked for context before getting angry but people can be impatient and it happens to everyone and honestly, it's unlikely every comment will get a response from video uploader, time is limited and other duties are more pressing. You insulting them, saying they are crazy, doesn't put you above them. If anything, you're lower than them because after watching well though out video by xisuma, you go on and copy the behavior he described, just from opposing side of conflict. >Imagine seeing the only possibility of one changing his position on a topic as to be brought up from an ill fated angry mob. How crazy is that? Where did they say it's the only possibility? I don't see such statement looking through responses to TFC's video.

Exactly. People don't realise that when TFC grew up, homosexual sex was illegal and would set people in jail. So his statement about letting people do what they want, but he wouldn't discuss diversive and political topics on his channel, really comes from a good place within that context. It's a step up compared to other opinions of his generation. And after it, it was his generation that legalised homosexuality largely because they would let people do what they want. Today those words seems ignorant because it's making a natural sexuality into something we shouldn't talk about, or it's just dismissing it. And I agree with that sentiment, it is ignorant to dismiss a natural thing like homosexuality as a "sensitive topic". But we can't forget that TFC's intention comes as a reaction to his own background and his own situation. Even my own grandmother who was supportive of gay rights her entire life and were arguing against her friend group about it since the start, she would say things like "but gays shouldn't kiss in public though, it's not good etiquette". It's a different generation, they come from a completely different place. But without people like my grandmother homosexuality would still be illegal. TFC is a different person from most other of his generation, because he interacts with younger people and thus gets confronted in a different way. And his reaction to it so far is admirable. All respect to him for listening and respecting concerned voices and rethinking how he phrases himself. You can tell he has a warm heart and genuinely wants the best for other people. Much respect.

Came back to this video. I don't think this grief will go away. It'll be there. But the days do get easier. I remember this whole situation and how upset I felt for TFC seeing how it got out of hand and the immaturity of the community. TFC was one of a kind truly. He'll be missed.

We make mistakes, we grow, we change, we adapt. How we address our mistakes is how we illuminate our character to others. This isn't cancel culture. This is being human and growing.

It is cancel culture. No one should feel the need to apologize for views they once held. It might not seem like much but if it keeps happening and people are attacked for having a differing view than you or even if not attacked feel like they offended someone so they have to make a video apologizing then it is cancel culture.

The only people who actually believe you can't talk about anything anymore are the same people who are talking about "anything." And it's really boring and really cringeworthy.

the lack of tone indicators in text and how social media tends to trend our responses towards a negative / bad faith reading is definitely a broader issue to the topic of "cancel culture" even if generally speaking its laughable to say someone's "getting cancelled" if they're called out- or even if they make an apology video. most of the ppl who complain abt it go on to have vibrant careers very loudly complaining that they can't say exactly what they're being platformed to say. on a sidenote, wonderful neutral/positive tone in this video.

I try avoid internet drama, inevitable I guess, stumbling in occasionally. But a couple things for sure; talk to yourself 10 years ago, that's a completely different person... And there's no room for emotion in media outside of theatre. Take that how you will.

I absolutely thought TFC’s apology was truly genuine and passionate. When I saw comments taking the criticism he received to an extreme and saying that the group that brought up the criticism was just over exaggerating and trying to hate, it was a little saddening. Especially when in this situation it seemed like valid criticism born from fans who love TFC and were slightly hurt by the things of the past. This was a good showcase of how the community can help better content creators in a mutual caring way.

@@derrickmiles5240 You're really overcomplicating this. I'm gonna skip past the gender roles stuff, since that's inherently about opinions and is steering off topic, and I'll focus on the rest. Of course there are higher standards - tell me, if your child were a school bully who picked on people because of something they can't change, wouldn't you try to change the way that they think? Try to make your kid stop bullying? Or let's say that your child used to be the school bully, and they're all grown up now, and a kid they used to bully came up to them. Let's say that your kid has grown past being a bully and that the kid who was bullied wanted your child to apologize all these years later. Should your kid, who used to bully this person, apologize for what he did in the past or scoff and call them a big baby for bringing something up from so many years ago? There is such a thing as higher standards, and there is such a thing as taking responsibility for past actions, and there is such a thing as repenting. There is such a thing as apologizing for things you once did which you don't believe in anymore. Most good stories revolve around that exact premise, actually. What happened here with TFC is okay. He made a mistake a long time ago, apologized for it, and everything is fine. The internet is holding him up to the higher standard of not being exclusionary towards people. You can be dislike religion and homosexuality without being exclusionary. I personally think that religion is a relic of the past and should be left behind, and I'm very much straight, yet I don't attack people who believe in religion nor do I attack people who are attracted to the same sex.

Thank you for this informative and mature explanation of the situation, this is one of the reasons why I love your channel.

Thanks for making this video X! I watched TFC’s video and I was really touched by it, I’m glad he took it so seriously and that he took the time to address it. I’m trans and I’ve always felt really safe watching all of the hermits (hell, I’ve been watching Etho since I was thirteen) and I’m honestly happy to know that TFC has grown since he wrote that and that everyone handled it so calmly. The internet can be a pretty rocky place to be as a trans person, especially because the LGBTQIA+ community is one of many groups who get blamed for “cancel culture” just because people see us as divisive. It makes me really happy to know that the community surrounding Hermitcraft is (for the most part) capable of talking this kind of thing through without the conversation turning into a slap fight over what people perceive “cancel culture” to be.

TFC is one if my favourite hermits to watch, I love the chilled nature of his videos. I saw the apology video, it's unfortunate that some people have blown it out of proportion. I wish TFC good health, and am hopeful he can make more videos for season 8. Thanks for helping to clear things up X.

As a very long time viewer of TFC, going all the way back to his early explorations of Minecraft in videos with comments in the single digits or zero, it really is so heartening to see how far he has come, and the sheer love and support for him in the community!

X you are genuinely really good at explaining and speaking and I'm very impressed

This channel is honestly really helpful for me to understand issues like this and it's definitely helping me become a better person, so just wanted to say thanks Xisuma :)

Thanks for the context and video, and sorry for your loss regarding TFC. I had no idea about any of this, and as someone in the LGBTQ+ Community who is also a fan of Hermitcraft, I've often been curious about the Hermit's individual view points; however, I see it more as a Pandora's Box that I don't necessarily want to open. I've had a few childhood heroes fall in my eyes over their various views, and frankly, it isn't any of my business unless such people are actively trying to impede my life (harassment, trying to take rights away, etc.) I'm glad TFC got a chance to clear the air and apologize before his passing, though.

Most of the hermits are very openly pro-LGBTQ+. And it stands to reason the rest are, but just not as open about it. Gem and Cleo are both bi, and Cleo uses she/they pronouns. And a little while ago, Cleo made a tweet about being bi, and Jevin and False responded with support. Ren has also used "ladies and gentlemen and everything in between" or something along those lines a few times. They don't mention it much in their videos, probably because of KZread being... the way it is. But several hermits have expressed their support in other places. Grian did a livestream where he raised money for the Trevor Project, and a good number of them are friends with Scott (Smajor), who is openly gay. So rest assured, the hermits are good!

That's just my 2 cents opinion but, when you like a person's content, you tend to also like the content creator behind it. And if you learn, one way or another, that this content creator is disrecpecting or hating on a group of person you're a part of (for example the LBGT+ community or an ethnicity in particular), it can be hurtful. If you're gay, you don't wanna support a homophobic person, if you're black, you don't wanna support a racist person, etc. So yes, it can be important to know a creator's stance on a social issue, especially when you're from a minority that is facing daily discrimination. The people in question here that came to inquire about TFC wanted to know if his stance was the same as what he wrote 10 years ago, so they know what kind of person they are supporting. And for me, that is a very legitimate question. And he reacted really well by acknowledging the problem, acting on it and apologizing. The fact that he took it serioulsly shows that the issue matters to him too.

Stay positive and keep creating content anyone can enjoy!

Thank you so much for this video. I know that you would rather not have to contribute into this supposed "drama" and it takes very careful use of words to deescalate and not fuel even more, especially since the Hermits try very hard to keep out of every kind of drama. But you stood up for a fellow Hermit and that is invaluable. We need more people like you in the internet.

Thanks for giving us all some clarity over the situation X. I'm sure many like me were very confused by TFC's apology video as it was the first we had heard of it. I certainly saw no mobs on social media or any kind of pitchfork waving. I'm sure many of us have held views long in the past that we no longer identify with. TFC very calmly and genuinely brought up the issue himself, confronted it head on and apologised sincerely. From my perspective, that's now a closed book and we move on.

I got my opinion on the matter from the words that came out of his own mouth in the apology video. He said “ I said somethings that offended some people and hurt some people with those things that I said” it made it sound like a group was coming after him and not just one person. If he had said Somebody brought it to my attention….. Then I wouldn’t have thought that there was a group after him. I really appreciate you clarifying this though. Thank you.😁

I don't come to this channel often but I really liked the way you talked about this rather harsh topic, well done! :)

Oh thank you so much for talking about this topic X, i was reading the comments section of the apology video and by trying to understand what had happened (if there was indeed a mob) i simply couldn't find one, be it on twitter or on TFC's older videos, so it grinded my gears a bit when people were starting to use that sincere apology as a jumping point for attacking someone or some group As you mentioned in a stream we should always try our best to interpret the best intent of others but it gets pretty tiresome to see this rhetoric of the "cancel culture" and be the target of generalization, the term itself became such a buzzword that it lost all it's meaning But i agree that it was a very mature way to handle things and in my comment i expressed how i didn't sense malice or bad intent coming from TFC and am honestly quite overjoyed to see someone grow and change so much and be so honest about it

TFC was apologizing for the things he had said in the past because it can still be harmful (especially for young people like a lot of HCs veiwers) to see people you look up to say these things. Its good to denounce things you may have done in the past if they are harmful.

An apology is also a powerful way of demonstrating that a person no longer holds those views, and that it truely is in the past.

Apologizing for hurtful language or behavior for views you had in the past is important to make a safe and comfortable environment for people of that community. We as content consumers need to be aware of who we support financially.

The voice of ten years ago was still floating around and causing pain to people. As to "how the queer community relates to Hermitcraft", there's quite a few problems there. Are you saying there's no sort of overlap in those communities? Because you know that's rubbish. Do either of the communities exist in hermetically sealed spheres or something? The point is that he still had his views from 10 years ago kicking about, even though he no longer held them. Where people could see it, and be hurt by it. Or worse, influenced by it. TFC gave a heartfelt apology of his own volition, because he felt genuinely awful about it.

seems to have been a growing situation for all directly involved i hope the vocal outsiders can gain some insight if not to the context but the overall growth i wish you the best xisuma and tfc stay safe and stay strong

Appreciate the clarification. Context as you have pointed out frequently is vital for understanding.
