Gets caught being racist in the past

People in turn thought it was the official discord server and that Xananax an official member, and started harassing the actual Godot staff. They are forced to ban people who appear to be harassing them for no reason. Today they posted a statement to clarify

Update: Statement from Xananax

Looks like this is actually a reactionary response to them stopping hate speech in their server.

    For starters, the exact words are “Should focus on software, not politics”. This is a commonly known dogwhistle, there are numerous cases of someone questioning whether trans people should have rights then saying this. The only correct way to say it is, “let’s not bring in legal politics”. Morality and Organization are separate topics and cannot be discarded in any context where people organize. That is all.

      First of all, I don’t think anyone, anywhere questioned trans rights in software. I believe this a “dogwhistle” but from the other side. Nobody gives a slightest damn about identity & genitals of who contributes to the software or who makes games. I am open for an counter example, if you could provide one.

      Second, i don’t understand your “morality and organisation…” sentence sorry

      Edit: still waiting for the counter example
