To @…, and to a certain genre of supporter now grumbling about criticism:
The thing is, "not being political" is kind of a myth.
And even to the extent that that could be a thing, it doesn't extend to where you choose to put money, or whose work you choose to boost and promote.
What's happening today isn't a newly-political situation where no politics was before - it's people paying more attention to some choices which already carried political weight.

#Framework #politics

Thoughtful write-up from @…, including this excellent turn of phrase:
"People don’t want this for Framework, and they’re cautious to distance themselves because they’ve seen other projects claim to be a “big tent”, only for the tent to catch on fire, melt, and shrink under everyone’s feet, because nobody used a fire extinguisher when it was early enough to do so."
#Framework #Omarchy #DHH #tech #politics

I don't think at framework they are racists or transphobes or xenophobes or fascists in general.
I think it's just a living example of the parable of the Nazi bar. They might not believe in it, but that does not change that they are going in that direction.
I wonder how the work culture will be influenced by this. Will people leave and will they hire more white supremacists as a replacement?
