Doug TenNaple is a comic book writer who is most known for work such as Nickleodoen's Catscratch and videos games Earthworm Jim and Armikrog. Jim was currently reviewed by Kotaku, written by a transwoman named Heather Alexandra, a fan who was frustrated at the game being difficult and it's mean humor.
This lead to TenNaple asking for an interview because he believed his game and team weren't represented well.
Notice what he did? He called her a him.
Twitter reacted as expected.
Doug, being the calm and collected person he is, kept calling Heather a man. In a very polite manner.
He has gotten into trouble in the past because of his beliefs. Doug is a conservative Christian. He doesn't believe in gay marriage. Instead of talking to the man about his ideas and religion (like he's told them to do many times before) they call him a homophobe.
His being extremely kind may eventually get under someone's skin. I wanna see how this ends. Word might spread. It just started a few hours ago. There are predections of angry articles in the future.
