Did they not support their country until a few days ago?
One problem with such political gestures is that they have even less nuance than a tweet, which makes it easy for people to misunderstand the point being made (and also easy for others to deliberately misrepresent what is being said).
Perhaps like a README or LICENSE file, we need a POLITICS file that maintainers can put in their repo to list which countries and policies they support, to avoid any ambiguity. The absurdity of that idea, though, suggests that the only winning move is not to combine national politics with international software projects.
