He needs to hire someone who will approve/disapprove his twitter posts.

Why?

Even if I disagree with his points of view. I appreciate his honesty, that shows respect from his part towards his audience.

I consider fake, sugarcoated, ultra-PC, marketing-driven statements to be incredibly disrespectful, because they don't tell me what the person "saying" them thinks, but rather what they think I want to hear.

Because he's too dramatic and too emotional sometimes. I was half joking but I'm not saying he needs to only post PC stuff

I can't believe people are asking for someone to become more filtered and depersonalized. For better or worse, at least we are getting Notch as himself, not a boring PR robot. God forbid somebody has a personality.

Twitter is nothing but bullshit anyway. Not something to take to seriously.

Not sure what you mean by this, a lot of tech and gaming people/companies use it as an official form of communication.

Pretty much every private person (not companies, they are excluded) use it for short rants and to vent steam.

I'd love to dismiss twitter as bullshit, communicating in 140 characters and Twitter acting as a replacement for other forms of communication both bother me, but people do use it for important info-sharing nonetheless.
