Hi, I am not exactly sure how best to frame this, but recent events have got me wondering where exactly Framework, as a company, stands with regards to human rights and equality. If I understand correctly (and please do correct me if I am wrong), it seems like Framework has started sponsoring Hyprland: So I presume this is fact: Framework, as a company, has decided to sponsor a Wayland compositor who is well known to be led as a rather “toxic and hateful community”. Separately, but on the ...

Title of the (concerning) thread on their community forum, not voluntary clickbait. Came across the thread thanks to a toot by @[email protected] (French speaking)

The gist of the issue raised by OP is that framework sponsors and promotes projects lead by known toxic and racists people (DHH among them).

I agree with the point made by the OP :

The “big tent” argument works fine if everyone plays by some basic civil rules of understanding. Stuff like code of conducts, moderation, anti-racism, surely those things we agree on? A big tent won’t work if you let in people that want to exterminate the others.

I’m disappointed in framework’s answer so far

    The Nazis are a completely different story. It wasn’t that they saw Jews as a cost or as objects, it’s that they saw them as less than objects, they viewed them as actively threatening the country.

    I didn’t say that’s where it ended, it starts with stripping people’s humanity away by thinking of them as a number in your record books. Just like your suggesting.

    As in, this was active hate, not apathy.

    Your going to straight face tell me that this isn’t what tump is doing? Rounding up immigrants and trans people as antifa?

    It’s not apathy right now. It’s active hate. Go to any protest and see the right wingers with their attitude. See the Israelites in the US loose their mind on people standing up for Palestinians.

    I assume you’re talking about gun rights?

    No. Human Rights.

    When the ‘left’ calls for and protests for not killing of black (see what Kyle Rittenhouse did), Muslims, immigrants, trans people, ect… It’s always shut up no one cares.

    And the GOP only has power, so long as the people that vote for them support them. And they elected a Nazi crew, so yes, my problem is with the people who voted for this hate.
