hm, i thought KDE was trying to make up for platforming the nazi.

@davidgerard oh nevermind, i see now why that was a blockable offence for them.

i'd say it's especially worrying that under the thread saying KDE does not harbor fascists someone who's somewhat associated with KDE (even referring to KDE as "we") not considering DHH a fascist is a worrying sign.
but then i reminded myself that they didn't say they don't harbor fascists, but that they don't harbor "fascists", with the scare quotes.@Yuvalne @davidgerard > I think he's racist rather than fascist as I've not seen fascist traits
jesus fuck
kde contributors out here splitting hairs so they can allow, checks notes, racists who they pretend to think aren’t fascists, into the community

Self introspection, logic and wisdom have never been the sting point for fascists and their supporters 🫤

@zzt@mas.to @davidgerard@circumstances.run @Yuvalne@433.world
.... is my feeling just a German thing or ... isn't this the same level of dehumanizing fucketry? Like...claiming to not be a fascist, but only racist would make anything better???
"Hell yeah, those damn fascists at least got their jail sentences buddy!"
"Glad pops we're only racists ha! Nevermind that fascist scum!"
Or am I misreading something entirely here? oO
<-- utterly confused about the discussion -

@zzt @Yuvalne @davidgerard fascism is rooted in racism, but I guess this guy is suppesedly "one of the good (?????) racists)? like, what is the point of this distinction other than to divert the discussion
Never believe that anti-Semites are completely unaware of the absurdity of their replies. They know that their remarks are frivolous, open to challenge. But they are amusing themselves, for it is their adversary who is obliged to use words responsibly, since he believes in words. The anti-Semites have the right to play. They even like to play with discourse for, by giving ridiculous reasons, they discredit the seriousness of their interlocutors. They delight in acting in bad faith, since they seek not to persuade by sound argument but to intimidate and disconcert. If you press them too closely, they will abruptly fall silent, loftily indicating by some phrase that the time for argument is past.
