Good luck with the main developer being in the alt right.

Sources? I can't find anything on that via google/ddg (Germany)

edit: oof.

  • Oof indeed. Now I know that Kling is indeed open towards some alt right positions, but I really wouldn't call him a fascist for that. Conservative probably, but conflating conservative positions with fascism is probably not helpful in the fight against the real fascists.

    But also oof to .. some other items there from the blog. Apparently rsync is now banned from the list of acceptable software, because they do not ban LLM's completely?

    Sounds like you will never run out of problems, with a ideology like this.

  • Isn't this blog post more evidence that drewdevault became an extreme leftist?

    I mean he's basically going off a checklist of leftist stereotypes here and trying to check as many of them as possible.

    Meanwhile the other guy he's criticising is literally just a standard right-wing conservative, not far right, not alt right, just the regular kind. The far right I've seen is basically beyond the idea of being merely anti-immigration, they demand ICE style mass deportations immediately and in every country.

    If both of them met in a bar through sheer coincidence, I'd expect drewdevault to start the fight.

    • Sorry, but painting these people as "standard right-wing" is just evidence for the shifting of the Overton window further to the right. White replacement theory and expressing support for an alt-right ideologue who manipulated people with bad faith, dishonest and downright monstrous arguments is not "standard right-wing".

      Charlie Kirk was for mass deportation. He didn't even hide it. He said it openly. How do you come off saying that these people aren't far-right or alt-right when they are unabashedly so?
