Linus’ thread: (CW: bigotry and racism in the comments) https://social.kernel.org/notice/AWSXomDbvdxKgOxVAm (you need to scroll down, i can’t seem to link to the comment in the screenshot)
Nothing wrong with being “woke” especially if that mean being awake to social and racial injustices, similar to what MLK Jr. called for.
Linus sounds like a thinker. Nothing to see here… moving on
Reminder that according to DeSantis’s general counsel in a courtroom, when asked to define “woke” said
the belief there are systemic injustices in American society and the need to address them.
Which doesn’t sound like such a bad thing
How dare you accuse society of having injustices! You will be happy with our inequalities whether you like it or not, peon!
More importantly, the whole concept of FOSS software is inherently political the same way that top-down, for-profit software is political. It aligns heavily with collectivist, socialist values, which makes it extremely frustrating to me that politically active leftists are often rightfully repulsed by the nasty bigotry and paranoia FOSS software seems to draw in. So many people who would otherwise champion FOSS software as a moral good reject it.
He is a fellow woke moralist? Based and HRT-pilled.

I had the impression that the community was more or less conservative in the garden variety but I’m welcoming being wrong
Finally some explicit values from the Linux community

Hmm maybe we can use the 2nd amendment to defend LGBT+ Rights? 🤔
sure!
This is great, I’m glad the founder of my OS is so based :)
In a similar vein, KDE just launched this.
