Does DHH actually deserve to be cancelled, or Omarchy "defunded"? I just read the OOTL on Reddit, and I have to say that I am not entirely convinced. https://www.reddit.com/r/linux/comments/1oa74wh/im_out_of_the_loop_whats_the_deal_with_dhh/ https://www.reddit.com/r/linux/comments/1oa74wh/im_out_of_th...

He did post at least two blog posts with very questionable political standpoints, while also not displaying a high level of critical thinking, one could say. Not sure where the point of „should be cancelled“ is reached, but doesn’t paint the best picture of him to say the least. Probably the worst quote: > When wolves get out of control, you shoot them. When gypsies take over public spaces, you deport them. This isn't hard, it isn't cruel. It's the basic logic of self-preservation. [0] The comparison between shooting wolves here seems definitively bad tase and missing nuance.

Not sure what'll convince you then, if DHH's own rant against immigrants and roma doesn't.

  It's amazing that even after the Holocaust, prejudice against Roma is so prevalent in allegedly polite society.

  I don't know. Something just feels... "off" about it? If you were so inclined you read equivalent stuff in the Telegraph every week, so why go after DHH and his projects so enthusiastically? It just feels like there is something else going on.
