      i’ve linked to more context in the original post

      but the TL;DR is:

      • framework has started to financially support open-source project
      • among those projects are hyprland and omarchy, both having ties to the far-right (hyprland’s community is a toxic nazi bar and omarchy is maintained by a loud and proud racist)
      • people were understandably upset at framework for this
      • framework’s response was “nooo you guys, we are apolitical! we are trying to make a big tent! and that includes fascists too, stop being meanies!”
