I am so disappointed by this - thought he was a nice guy.
For some reason I always had a feeling about him. Perhaps I couldn’t understand why a guy that did so well in life like him found so much time to pick fights on Twitter. With the kind of money he had, I’d pay to be anonymous.
I've seen a lot of "formerly nice guys" falling. It's very hard to let people go and to deal with them if necessary (like using their project). To this date I can't understand why he went this route. He's successful, family guy, very rich. Why going after immigrants, poor, diverse people? Same with Musk. He's a prototype awkward guy yet he started a holy war against all DEI. WTF. Don't get it.

dhh is fully mask-off maga
He also has a history of this kind of posting
> There was the post where he described an ad featuring a plus-sized Black women as “grotesque” and celebrated the ads being replaced with ones featuring “blond babies”
Refreshing and brave take. He's not calling for violence nor is he placing certain ethnicities/races above others. There's nothing wrong with promoting or protecting the interests of native-born or indigenous people over those of foreigners or immigrants.
Heterodox opinion in some circles, but this is not some fringe belief.
One of the issues is that London in that time was very far from "full of native Brits". The 60% he mentions were mostly not seen in the streets when I visited first in 1997, mostly because they lived in the suburbs.
There is nothing at all brave or heterodox or anything positive at all in supporting violent criminal fascists like Robinson. Yes, it is wrong.
> London is no longer the city I was infatuated with in the late '90s and early 2000s. Chiefly because it's no longer full of native Brits [1]
