The presenter is Mattias Andrée and is allegedly an active Neo Nazi in Stockholm according to a public post from Swedish Antifa in Swedish (use Google Translate). Posting from a throwaway for obvious reasons.
This being said, he is the only Neo Nazi I know of in the Suckless community and I know of more than a handful of Anarchists. So my takeaway has always been that maybe they attract extremists more than that they have some sort of weird Nazi bent and appeal.
My personal stance is that the software is fine and that using it is fine. The community lacks a spokesperson to defend itself due to its fairly decentralized nature. So there is really no they that you can ask for a statement. Frankly the fact that these accusations surface all the time is beginning to border on being slanderous as I am sure other communities have their hidden Nazis as well.
Suckless seem to genuinely believe in older ideals of "code speaks" and "keep politics out" when you look at their behavior. Given how incredibly marginal their influence and user base is, do we really need to go over them with a fine comb or can we perhaps safely leave them alone?
