Honestly can't understand why DHH is still getting support from corporate sponsors like Cloudflar and Framework. Hvae we really come to the point where we can fund the useless pet projects of nazis without even considering how it looks?
That is a lie and you know it. It’s really exhausting seeing the pile on and the mob mentality. It truly brings out the ugliest people and the ugliest in people.
I think the most salient point for me is "Is there any chance for these people, who are shielded by their well-paying jobs, their exclusively occupational media diet, and stimuli all happen to reinforce the default world view?" So many people (mostly American men) are insulated from reality. To use their pejorative language - when it finally intrudes on their safe spaces, they turn into little snowflakes. How is it p…

"They're insulated from reality" the Marxist chortled just moments after unironically claiming men can be pregnant.
The ruse is up. Calling anyone right of Mao a Nazi doesn't work anymore.
This is just a tired one at this point, The people who care have picked sides, the people who don't (are probably smarter for not caring) and no one who's picked a side is likely to change their mind. I don't like what DHH has become or what he says (nor do I have any interest in Omarchy, I prefer Fedora (for many years)/KDE (recently but loving it) anyway) since "As I remember London[1]" was the final straw for me (…
The issue is that open aource is a community-based development model. If you let nazi's into your community, they will eventually drive away everyone else.
Glad that's not what happened, DHH is not a Nazi.

He has also quite clearly taken a nazi or ethnonationalist stance. If we allow the term "nazi" to refer to people other than literal card-carrying members of the German Nazi party up until 1945, he fits the description accurately.

As I said below, DHH has repeatedly shown he's a bad actor, whether you think he's a nazi or not. He will continue to drive away sane people from the communities he's a part of. He has also quite clearly taken a nazi or ethnonationalist stance. If we allow the term "nazi" to refer to people other than literal card-carrying members of the German Nazi party up until 1945, he fits the description accurately.
No he hasn't. Holding heterodox opinions isn't being "a bad actor."
>He will continue to drive away sane people from the communities he's a part of.
He's driven insane people from the communities he's a part of. Sane people will flock to them.
>He has also quite clearly taken a nazi or ethnonationalist stance.
No he hasn't. There's nothing wrong with promoting or protecting the interests of native or indigenous people over those of immigrants or foreigners.

And he is an ethnonationalist. In "As I remember London", he claimed Britain was a third native brit, then backed it up with a wikipedia link showing a third of London was white. So in DHH's mind white = British. There's no other way to interpret that, and he hasn't corrected it.

The bad actor part is e.g. shutting down review processes in his company when they contradict his beliefs, and plotting to oust people from RubyGems for having the wrong political beliefs.

His company, his rules. He banned activist employees from using work as a platform to proselytize their grievance politics.
>In "As I remember London", he claimed Britain was a third native brit, then backed it up with a wikipedia link showing a third of London was white.
This is what happens when you only read posts on Bluesky/Mastodon. He claimed London was only a third "native Brit" which is the factual reality, backed up by Wikipedia. He didn't include "all Whites" just "White Brits." White Brits are the only native Brits to Britain.
>So in DHH's mind white = British.
Wrong. White Brit = native Brit, which is factually correct.
>There's no other way to interpret that
Correct, no other way to interpret the facts.
>and he hasn't corrected it.
"He hasn't removed the wrongthink!"

But even for a faulty ethnonationalist concept of nationality, the data point makes no sense. I'm white and born in Finland. By your logic, if I move to the UK and become a naturalized citizen, then I would be a native. Which is obviously not true. So the one third figure is both racist and incrdibly stupid.
Native means you're born somewhere. Equating nationality by skin color is ethnonationalism. So I guess congrats, you're a nazi.
