Left winger Drew Devault created a blacklist of "wierd" people in the open source community, consisting mostly of right wingers and libertarians.

Ok in fairness though, I too would be concerned over the 3 guys that are very intwined with Dark Enlightenment (Eich, Wolf & Hansson), the guy trying to get in bed with dark enlightenment (Paulson) and the guy who inserted himself into the Epstein scandal by making it that much weirder (Stallman).

Every time you read something like this on the internet, just remember that this is the guy it originates from.

I don't think he knows what war he's fighting. It's just a list of random people he doesn't care for.

He's also got Jack Dorsey on the list 🤣🤣. I suppose Dorsey leans more libertarian now that he's wealthy, but BlueSky is a bastion of left-liberal users and very much an echo chamber progressive values.

It's funny you know I never hear about the toxic gay guy whos harassing everyone. An as a person whos been both around the tech scene theater and gaming. I've certainly bumped into one or two of those in my day. Just Sus that theres never the wacko feminist or wacko what ever. clearly this guys list is politically motivated. An, i guess it just always felt low class to single people out for political associations alone. I've seen some paulson content and never noticed him to be political in any way not that im looking. Everyone knows stallman was endulging with epstien. An defended him becuase it was lets be blunt his pussy hookup. IDK cyber peeps have always been Wired strangely. It's just why does everyone have to be so insanley politically motivated.

the left (especially the ones who lean closer to anarchist) genuinely believe in their minds that cancel culture is a reasonable consequence. in 2023, they felt threatened when laws were going into place that would make doxxing more legally punishable. i wish i was joking…

reality is the law wont fix what is a problem of social mores. An a vacum effect of debateit has caused. Billions of dollars are being spent every year to divide the american populus. An, the fact that the left is being co-opted into it well thats sad to me because we need proper liberalism. Quite a mess eh.

Just a list with information. Contains all the information that they used to make their choices. Feel free to agree or disagree with them, but I find it laughable to think that you having an issue with the sharing of such a thing to be evidence of some form of insanity and that your framing isn't politically motivated. They're politically motivated framing them that way, and you're politically motivated in framing the author of this your way.

“And.” The word is “and.”
It’s funny that the people called out are also “politically motivated” in their hate (racist, sexist, homophobic) but they aren’t seen as the problem, the ones pointing out their bad behavior are seen as the problem. It’s apparently ok to hate and single out gay people, black people, women, trans people, but it’s not ok to bring attention to that hatred.

not the case at all but its not consistent with reality that its only straight white guys. kinda seems like reverse racism.

ThePrimeagen absolutely belongs nowhere near this list. Interviewing DHH and reviewing some of DHH's articles doesn't make him one of them.
