Existence is political. If you want to foster a positive community, this is how you do it.

Some of us prefer to just focus on technology and not have politics injected into everything we do.

This kind of thing is clearly virtue signaling and flag waving.

You may as well have a banner that says "conservatives not welcome".

It's their project, and their choice. I just find the whole thing tiresome.

Feel free to ignore it then?

Yes, I will.

Probably wouldn't have otherwise.

Based on the comments here, I'm not the only one.

So, nice way to build a community?

Where "inclusive" actually means the opposite.

I would recommend just ignoring it and not commenting about it.

You foster a positive community by accusing the person reading your webpage of potentially being a Nazi? lmao

All this sort of thing tells me is to avoid this community because accusations of bigotry are going to start flying over the smallest of arguments and I have no interest in having people try to ruin my life because of their unhealthy obsession with politics
