Let me sum up the reasons.
DHH wrote a blog post on his experience with immigration in the UK. Some people think that makes him a Nazi. He also runs the omarchy distribution.
There was a transphobic post on hyprland‘s Discord, which was unmoderated at the time.
It's not one comment from hyperland, it's an harasement campain that led them to be baned from freedesktop.org and rightfully so.
And the blog post you liked is a rant that there not enough white people in london while supporting the tommy robinson march ( a nazi event ).
Funny how there's already people downplaying how bad it actually is.
I did not like that blog post.
You sure seem to be defending it a lot though.
I linked it to give people the opportunity to read and form their own opinion. Posting a link is now defending?
DHH has been a controversial person for decades. I understand when people don’t want to be connected to him.
You started off calling it all overblown, without even looking at all the other right wing blog posts he's made.
Thats putting a pretty hefty slant to start things off, yeah.
That blog post is quite racist, or at the very least, xenophobic.
Why am I not surprised you think that one post is the only issue.
Well, it was the only one that I know of. If you know others, then please share.
Sure, here's a quote of a comment I made on the other post:
Thank you for sharing these.
