Five Nights at Freddy’s. (Scott Cawthon)
Scott Cawthon, the creator of the popular video game series Five Nights at Freddys, said he would not “apologize” for funding Republican politicians, including Donald Trump.
The animator and designer was burned last week for donations to various U.S. politicians.
As revealed by a Twitter user known as Antifa’s Chief Imagering Officer with a screenshot of the public filing in Cawthons, Cawthon maximized his political donations to a number of Republican politicians from 2015 to 2020.
Donations range from $ 5 to $ 5,000, including a $ 2000 donation to Donald Trump and a $ 5,000 donation to anti -LGBT + senator Mitch McConnell.
Scott cawthon, well-known creator of five nights at freddy’s and lesser known as a christian fundie, arranged his political donations to republican and PAC candidates in 2020, who read the tweet.

The list of politicians includes Democrat Tulsi Gabbard, who receives $ 2,500, but as mentioned if you look at his politics the picture becomes clear.
he was a crypto-fash ally of the hindutva militias, pushed anti-trans bills and appeared in PragerU
Since then, Cawthon has followed Reddit to defend his stance: “I’ve debated how best to address this, including that it’s not addressing everyone, but to so many people from the LGBT community on the fanbase that I like, that’s not an option.
“I like to think that the last seven years might give me the benefit of skepticism about how I’ve tried to treat people, but there I was, trending on twitter for being a homophobe, getting doxed, to people who threaten to come to my house. “
He continued: “While there are candidates who have better things to say directly to the LGBT community, and bigger commitments to make, I believe their stance on other issues can do even greater harm. in communities than good.
“I am a republican. I am a Christian. I am pro-life. I believe in God. I also believe in equality, and in science, and in common sense. Despite what some may say, all of those things can go together. That was not an apology or promise to change, as before. “
Cawthon is known as an animator and game designer, not only for Five Nights at Freddys but a number of biblical films.
He started Five Nights at Freddys in 2014 and has since released several games in the series, as well as a novel trilogy and an upcoming film adaptation.
Due to the success of the series, in 2020 he was estimated to have a net worth of $ 60 million.
A new game in the series, Five Nights at Freddy’s: Security Breach, will soon be released this year on PlayStation and PC. A video of the gameplay was recently shown at a presentation on the PlayStation State of Play.
However, many players responded negatively to the news of this donation, especially LGBT + players who were unhappy that Cawthon was funding politicians against LGBT + rights. FNAF has since been trending on Twitter.

Sorry about politics but when someone makes a donation to people who are actively trying to take away my rights as a person, the person said that could be bent.
Also sucks because I want to play the new FNAF game nearby:/https://t.co/tmjrfCqDbw

In case you didn’t know, a lot of anti-trans bills have been passed just this year and ppl like scott are the reasons why these bills are being passed and conservative movements. Yes, this is very important – you pay him everything so he can pay to get your rights. https://t.co/flQLB7BBJT

some people are really dense and very blind to fandom. can’t believe how many posts I’ve seen like “umm really just because the fnaf man gave thousands to republics doesn’t mean he agrees with their agenda” it really is. that’s literally what it means
