    We’re arguing on the assumption that living in western europe isnt “rich”. Even the people living from state welfare with running water are better off then 50% of the planet because they even have clean water.

    Notch btw started as a programmer at the age of 18 (wikipedia) and lived in sweden, one of the richest countries in the world. Having the time to learn programming at that age is already a sign of (white) privilege.

    There. Is. No. Self. Made. Wealth. Period.

    That on the other hand is not saying that notch wasnt successful, he undeniably was. But he is an unethical prick for keeping the money and engaging in debauchery. He does not deserve praise, neither does any rich person. You know who deserves praise? Dr. Ernesto “che” guevara does.
