On this day 10 years ago, Microsoft acquired #Minecraft developer Mojang for US$2.5 billion.

Ten years later, Mojang now has been part of Microsoft almost twice as long as it has been independent.
It’s interesting to look back at the original announcement video from Xbox as well:

I’m not sure if I’m way out of the loop or you’re a schizophrenic? Who is “you guys” I am just saying what I think is true, I don’t care about Notch, I am fully in support of ending racism and inequality too, but I’ve got no idea how you can link what you have and think that’s “literal Nazi” talk. It’s antisocial dork talk at best.
assuming you’re genuine, you’re wrong. it is Nazi talk. maybe you’re too young and wasn’t aware of anything back then, or you were in a coma… i guess there are scenarios in which you wouldn’t know this.
words don’t have inherent meaning. they have meaning in context. even the n-word wouldn’t be offensive without the history that comes with it.
Nazi talk is not “i am a Nazi and i hate Jews and so many other minorities”. well i guess that would be too, but usually it’s more coded. sometimes literally.
