Part of the reason why some farmers voted for trump (not the majority but some) was that american workers would consider farm jobs beneath them, and both americans and undocumented workers could always transfer to other jobs / farms if the conditions were unfavorable. Instead, they want to drive workers towards H2A visa to create modern slavery where workers have their pasports taken, are beaten and their families threatened by American companies
Trump rolled back protections for these workers earlier this year
Most of the discourse was about Omarchy/DHH, not just Hyprland, though that was a part of it. It is not purity testing to block people who don't work well with others or are hateful like DHH from a community. If you want to bring people who want us dead into a community then everyone else is going to leave
The main problem is
Np contributed to and glazes Omarchy
People wonder why DHH was sponsored with hardware
Generic response about "big tent" ideology to include everyone - including racists and transphobes like DHH
People are upset because they don't want to be in a Nazi Bar
NP makes twitter post about how people want to ascribe values to him he doesn't hold, that he's pro immigrant and pro lgbt
Np responds in forum thread that they reviewed hyprland and determined that theyd improved their moderation and were ok to sponsor (monetarily)
Framework responds they'll make a blog post clarifying their sponsorships
Blog post coincidentally excludes omarchy
People question it and basically just get a "we will get that updated" response
I still dont see it there
You cant claim to be pro immigrant and pro lgbt when you actively invite white supremacists and transphobes into the community and then try to avoid responsibility for that by not commenting or not retracting support or not clarifying how you'd avoid it going forward
The project may not be political (it is) but the people who use and support the project definitely are. If you want to kick out the community by inviting Nazis, then all that will be left once those people leave will be nazis. And if you knowingly collaborate with Nazis, you are a nazi.
Please put an NSFW tag on this. I was on the train and when I saw this I started getting anxious. Everyone else gave me strange looks and were saying things like "what the fuck" and "is he ok". I dropped my phone and everyone around me saw this image. Now there is a whole train of men anxious because of this one image. This is all your fault, you could have prevented this if you had just tagged this post NSFW.
Its a tale as old as time that they'd strip protections against racism, implement racist laws, and then pretend as if slavery was so long ago that it didn't matter anymore. It was literally happening not a decade after the Civil War ended
Old news: the "fuck your feelings" crowd operates entirely based on feelings and not facts. Truth will be distorted to keep them from feeling shame or humiliation
Lets see, theyve violated the 1st, 2nd, 4th, 5th, 6th, 8th, 9th, 10th, trying on the 13th, 14th, started the process on the 15th, doing their best on the 16th, the 19th, trying on the 22nd. Violating the 3rd is just next on the list
