<p style="text-align: left">I am so sick and tired of hearing about politics in relation to free software. I don't give a single crap about your ideologies or political views. If your in free software developement, you work on the software, write good code, and that's it.</p>
|
|
<p style="text-align: left">As of recently, I have seen a lot of left leaning individuals infiltrate the free software community, and try to force their ideological views onto the users of their software.</p>
|
|
<p style="text-align: left">One such example of this is openSUSE, and how there is a rainbow splash screen when you open LibreOffice (yes, a freaking productivity suite), and yes, this is real. I was able to find a post on openSUSE's own fourms asking for information about how to disable this "feature" (see this <a href="https://forums.opensuse.org/t/rainbow-branding-for-libreoffice-removal/151736">page</a>).</p>
|
|
<p style="text-align: left">Another example of this from yet again, openSUSE, is quite the series of vulgur and hateful responses towards someone who simply asked a reasonable question in a very level headed way (see this <a href="https://lists.opensuse.org/archives/list/factory@lists.opensuse.org/thread/XJOJEIKHH5GCFRIMZVWXSXJSJW2HTQGK/">page</a>). All this person was asking was for the removal of the rainbow geko logo from the openSUSE subreddit, because it has no place in technology and computer communities, and such communities should be inclusive to all kinds of people, regardless of their ideologies and beliefs. But oh no, this person spoke out against wokism and the rainbow flag. This person didn't bow down to the rainbow flag, so now they are being labeled as "homophobic".</p>
|
|
<p style="text-align: left">Just because you don't want to see the rainbow flag everywhere, and ideologies thrown in your face at all times, does not mean you have a phobia towards that thing in question. I am so sick of this woke train of thought infiltrating everything and anything that it touches.</p>
|
|
<p style="text-align: left">Politics have zero place in free software. Free software is about writing good, libre software for everyone to use, and that's it.</p>
|
|
<p style="text-align: left">My fellow members of the free software community, I implore you to stand for real freedom and inclusion, and fight back against this woke train of thought and one sided logic that only celebrates one group of people, and focus on what really matters here. Good, libre software that anyone and everyone can use, regardless of their ideologies and beliefs.</p>
