Culture wars come up in every Gleam thread. How often do you see culture war comments in a Rust, Elixir, Javascript, Etc thread? Essentially never. The Gleam founder's bigotry is a distraction at best.

I dunno about the others, but the icon for the Rust discord is the Rust logo superimposed on the pride flag, so they are not subtle about their position on the topic, so it has been a topic of discussion in that community.

Whatever confirms your priors.

What is interesting here is that most likely I am on the same side of the political aisle as the people there.

I still find that sort of talk insufferable. Gives me mid-2010s "woke" bullshit vibes (god the slang of my contemporaries is horrid).
