If the casual statements were "I like cheese" or "tabs are better than spaces" that would not have been newsworthy. "Feminism is a disease" and "Q is legit" are rather more controversial statements.
I don't want to apologize for those statements -- its clear that they were wrong. However, I do think that originally they were genuinely a result of a mental breakdown.
As for the "Q is legit" statement, he quit Minecraft before Q was a twinkle in 4chan's eye. I don't follow Notch and haven't for years. I'm not surprised a lonely tech enthusiast was ensnared by the Q cult, though.
