Controversy

2770429-troy.png

On July 22, 2015 Troy Baker retweeted a joke on Twitter made by Brian W. Foster. The joke's content in question was Brett Michaels looks like Mickey Rourke tried to become Caitlyn Jenner. The retweet then resulted in Baker receiving a significant number of complaints from fans over twitter, as the joke was interpreted as being transphobic in nature - the joke tweet was soon deleted.

Baker responded to the erupting controversy on twitter with It's a shame when there are people who would much rather choose to be offended than laugh, which primarily resulted in more ire and harassment, though also lead to the short lived hashtag of #IStandWithTroy that was created by his continued supporters. Within the same day, Troy then finally made one last tweet stating, I quit twitter.

Troy eventually 'returned' to Twitter on October 10th.
