It's stuff like this I really don't get:
The only person who politicized this entire situation was JonTron. He was the one who went on Twitter and wrote those things. Nobody was asking for his hot take on the issues at hand, the grand majority of people weren't even thinking about it. But he put himself out there, he made those statements, and now he has to deal with the consequences of having voiced those opinions.
You can still just play video games, also. Nobody is forcing you to have these discussions, just like nobody forced Jon.
I'm so confused by this response
Exactly, Jon made his own bed himself.
If he simply didn't mixed in with political shit on twitter, he would be in the clear.
It's pretty much like business, since being a popular Youtuber IS a business after all, you don't mix your job and politics, you'll end up facing conflics and losing colleagues if you go against the grain.
He did it all by himself, like a big, dumb boy.
