A group of Lefist Activists are pushing for the Ruby on Rails project to remove the project’s founder (@dhh) because they claim he “holds racist and transphobic views” and “other traits undesirable”. This group, which compares themselves to the French resistance during WWII, is

@LundukeJournal @dhh I support @dhh and encourage others like me to refuse to participate in these leftists’ trans delusions. If they can convince themselves that biology is false they can also convince themselves that violence and murder are acceptable.

@LundukeJournal @dhh Let's be honest, they're just looking for an excuse to rewrite Rails in Rust.

@LundukeJournal @dhh > “hard fork Rails and associated projects” They could literally du that at any moment. No letter needed. > “we pledge to support” That's an empty promise considering you could make a fork yourself right now. @rails don't fall for the lies of SJW.

@LundukeJournal @dhh A bunch of nonsense. DHH is a rad dude and is doing nothing but good these days in the tech world. The tech world is in desperate need of good, btw.

@LundukeJournal @dhh Excellent, a new blacklist

@LundukeJournal @dhh Championed by low T white males. News at 11 !!1!!!1!

@LundukeJournal @dhh These people ruin everything. The software community as a whole has to rise up and tell them no, something they've never before heard in their lives.

@LundukeJournal @dhh What is great is that they provide a list of supporters to that abomination, so we can and should bash back. Also: Read the selected articles against DHH, it will make you like DHH even more! Ruby on Rails for teh win!

@LundukeJournal @dhh Software developers need to realise that they're just software developers This whole thing of roleplaying the french fucking resistance, freedom fighters, soldiers, politicians.... ffs touch grass

@LundukeJournal @dhh https://github.com/Plan-Vert/o... I, for one, appreciate these people providing a helpful resource/directory of agitators to avoid in professional settings.

@LundukeJournal @dhh lol @ the bsky profile links.

@LundukeJournal @dhh "free speech is not freedom from the consequences of that speech". Did we not just witness the meltdown over the not funny Jimmy get a timeout? I'll stick with the guy who builds things, not those that destroy.

@LundukeJournal @dhh Of the people who signed this petition, there are more than twice as many people whose Project Name is blank than people who can actually name a Rails project they work on. And I’m counting people who listed activism-only projects as though that counts (debatable.)

@LundukeJournal @dhh Fuck every single one of them

@LundukeJournal @dhh can’t wait for Virtue Signaling on Rails!!

@LundukeJournal @dhh European censorship actually disgusts me.

@LundukeJournal @dhh Don’t give attention to stupid people

@LundukeJournal @dhh Cancel @DHH mob: "We as a community..." Also the cancel DHH mob: "GitHub issues are disabled" Fringe illiberalism is the problem.

@LundukeJournal @dhh Wow, I think they will quickly find most of us support @dhh

@LundukeJournal @dhh I'm happy I don't know any of those assholes

@LundukeJournal @dhh These people who are pushing to force society to adopt their own radical views on gender need to be kicked out of any role they have in the project. They are members of a bigoted cult that eventually starts murdering people.

@LundukeJournal @dhh Maybe it’s time to report this to their employers. All the signers are there to return the “favor” to. 🤷‍♀️

@LundukeJournal @dhh These lunatic leftists have ZERO interest in bettering ANY project they get burrow into. No, their interest is ONLY to act as political commissars - purging any and all not as pure of faith as themselves. And in the inevitable power struggle where they do get power, they will

@LundukeJournal @dhh I really don't want to like DHH but these folks are twisting my arm here.

@LundukeJournal @dhh I'm half tempted to open an issue in this repo and kindly request they share examples of DHH's "racist, nazi, and transphobic" posts to back up their hyperbole.

@LundukeJournal @dhh They argue from political ideological differences rather than technical merit. If they had the power, they could just fork, but they don't, so they try to take over.

@LundukeJournal @dhh In what universe is @ddh racist and transphobic wtf

@LundukeJournal @dhh Damn it... I'm going to have to learn Ruby and Rails at this point just to spite them...

@LundukeJournal @dhh It's time for Rails to bring back whitelists/blacklists and slave/master connections.

@LundukeJournal @dhh He should sue them for defamation - it's the only language they'll understand.

@LundukeJournal @dhh Now I must install Omarchy on more machines.

@LundukeJournal @dhh Holy shit, this is the most pathetic thing I've ever read. These people are stuck in 2020 and it's actually damaging our society more than anything dhh ever did
