Blatant misinformation and character assassination, as Brave's CEO never said such a thing. His former Mozilla colleagues confirmed that throughout his many years there he's never shared a single word that one might interpret as homophobic. You second lie is your supposed inability to use products by someone that would actually be homophobic. You use such products every single day, unless you completely opted out of modernity.

> Blatant misinformation and character assassination, as Brave's CEO never said such a thing. His former Mozilla colleagues confirmed that throughout his many years there he's never shared a single word that one might interpret as homophobic. So it doesn't count… because he paid others a significant sum to say it for him and obscure his involvement? That's… an interesting set of ethics. I wonder what you think about people who hire hitmen. > You second lie is your supposed inability to use products by someone that would actually be homophobic. You use such products every single day, unless you completely opted out of modernity. The world isn't black and white, and we can't read people's minds. That also doesn't mean that people's public behaviour doesn't affect others' perception of them.

  You're changing the subject. The OP claimed that the CEO doesn't want people like him to exist. Such a thing was never expressed, so it's made up. A blatant lie. Be precise with criticism and accusations if you want to be taken serious. My second point was regarding hypocrisy and hollow principles. You can't use a browser out of moral principle but happily use stuff from countries where there's a death penalty for being LGBTQ+.

    > You can't use a browser out of moral principle but happily use stuff from countries where there's a death penalty for being LGBTQ+. You should tell iPhone owners this. Certainly, they would put down their phone made by slave labor to focus on something more important than fifth wave feminism or eating vegan.

      And here we finally agree that most outrage is cheap theater. People abandon principles as soon as there's a cost to it.

        It achieves the desired effect.
