So it seems this started because of DHH. Let's judge the technology by the technology, else we are just taking a holier-than-thou approach whereby we think we are better than others because we don't commit certain sins, which is a real problem because when we look inwardly and honestly we shall see that we are guilty of many of the same sins. Let's judge the technology for the technology itself and leave personal ideology out of it. My 2 cents (which will inevitably be downvoted)
To be clear for anyone reading, the “personal ideology” here is racism with a white supremacist leaning.
Aside from the actual politics, DHH is clearly in "fuck you mode". I certainly don't trust that he's going to make decisions in the interest of the broader rails community.
speak for yourself, I never compare people to shoot wolves
That post called for deportation and not killing of illegal immigrants. If you people ever interact outside your bubble, those are normal opinions held by normal people (even though I would not consider DHH normal) and you people are snowflakes.
In any case railers are screwed (or railed, if I may). Either use the upstream which DHH is going to slopify and slowly kill, or use these forks by left-fascists who might happily sabotage you for perceived wrongthink in future.
In the absurd post-truth future we find ourselves in a situation where wrong think just means anything right of what Hasan Piker thinks on a given day.
