I’ve had quite a number of people tell me to stop bringing up ‘politics’ in my writing. For example, when I’ve decried Elon Musk and DHH when mentioning X (Twitter) and Omarchy, respectively.
Plainly, no. I will continue to mention injustices and wrongs. Tech is political – especially now.
The only people that are helped by staying quiet about bigotry, racism, fascism, xenophobia, etc, are the bigots, racists, fascists, and xenophobes.
I’ll call it out where I see it, and I urge everyone else to do the same.
