> The scene generally responded to those prods like a overamped shellfish allergy responds to shrimp -- not well [2] I've read half of the thread (12 pages, lost interest after that because it kept repeating) and it doesn't seem to be any different from the sort of responses you'll see here, on Reddit, X/Twitter, etc - i.e. about half the people are pro, about half the people are against and some are somewhere in the middle. The pro/against people even use the same arguments you'd read elsewhere (some recontextualized in demoscene but overall not demoscene-specific).
