"Alignment with the far right" is a complete misrepresentation.

Framework sponsors a few open source Linux projects, some of which have contributors with controversial opinions. Describing these projects as "far right" is completely unfair to the hundreds of people who have worked on them.

The common refrain is that companies should sponsor more open source projects. Apparently they also need to be the "correct" open source projects.





I mean, it shouldn't be morally objectionable to not support people who think that certain classes of people are sub-human, deserving of deportation, harassment, arrest and abuse, or outright murder.

It should be morally objectionable to support and promote such people regardless of their product. If think the "wrong" people don't deserve human rights, you don't get to play with the other kids.

Human rights overrides this asshole's privilege of being promoted. It overrides your right to participate in civilized society because you have chosen to be an uncivilized and antisocial person.


Your words are not wrong, but this isn't relevant.

You sound like the crazy uncle screaming about 5G covid nanoparticles at thanksgiving dinner right now.
