Nothing wrong with being “woke” especially if that mean being awake to social and racial injustices, similar to what MLK Jr. called for.
What an absolute bodying in public. Good on him.
Finally some explicit values from the Linux community
Linus’s rants have been legendary for a long, long time, love to see this one, didn’t knew my respect for the dude could grow more
Linus sounds like a thinker. Nothing to see here… moving on
This is great, I’m glad the founder of my OS is so based :)
In a similar vein, KDE just launched this.
More importantly, the whole concept of FOSS software is inherently political the same way that top-down, for-profit software is political. It aligns heavily with collectivist, socialist values, which makes it extremely frustrating to me that politically active leftists are often rightfully repulsed by the nasty bigotry and paranoia FOSS software seems to draw in. So many people who would otherwise champion FOSS software as a moral good reject it.
That thread is exactly why I’ve been avoiding the fediverse until beehaw and lemmy in general showed up. It’s filled to the brim with nazis, alt right ‘statistics’ and, you guessed it, slurs. I would’ve appreciated a warning…
I don’t know why the kernel server is badly moderated :( I added a CW, do you think it’s good like this?
It’s less than it’s badly moderated, than they have not defederated the instances everybody else in Fedi has already walled off, along with the individuals therein
It’s fine, although I would’ve used a more explicit warning(something like “bigotry and racism”). Regardless, thanks.
oh I scrolled a bit further down :( Edited again ^^
Reminder that according to DeSantis’s general counsel in a courtroom, when asked to define “woke” said
the belief there are systemic injustices in American society and the need to address them.
Which doesn’t sound like such a bad thing
How dare you accuse society of having injustices! You will be happy with our inequalities whether you like it or not, peon!
