kudos to The Verge for juxtaposing one of DHH's many insane racist/fascist statements right next to the bullshit victimization rhetoric of that 1Password cofounder

@nileane What a wild thing to say in a document intended for internal consumption.
"Yes, some of you have you convictions. But you must respect that some of your co-workers are cowards."
@nileane Nope. Hard no. We mustn't support hate speech. This is not "opinions". Remember IBM & the Holocaust. (I'm currently using 1P myself).
@nileane pity The Verge locked themselves behind a compulsory paywall. Used to be one of my favourite sites but now I can’t even read anything there at all.
@nileane Holy shit, I only knew about things that were questionable but not condemning about DHH.
Had I known he was suggesting to treat humans like animals…
@nileane @clarfonthey “There are people who are afraid to speak up simply because they will be personally attacked… for being racist.”
Our societies are failing because they keep opening the microphones for racist assholes.
@nileane is the person scared also the one saying this?
@nileane I'm confused? Is DHH encouraging people to shoot him as he's out of control? 🤔
@nileane @jakelazaroff has a good piece on the same storie, and yeah no.

@nileane “There are people who are afraid to speak up simply because they will be personally attacked” Well guess what Mimi, travelling people are afraid that they will be personally attacked too. The FUCKING privilege of being able to worry about neo-nazis being called out when pulling out literal neo-nazi rhetoric is fucking nuts
Anyway thanks for sharing all this info and updates
@nileane Sounds like something a dumbass fascist wolf would say. I guess we gotta do what we gotta do...
@nileane what a shit show .. really unfortunate.
@nileane 1password says they funded omarchy because it's the second most popular Linux distro among their customers. It begs the question:
Did they fund the first most popular first?
Or did they skip down to omarchy for some reason..
@nileane "Even before 1Password contributed, this page looked like a rogues’ gallery of tech." <--- this
