Just a reminder that the guy behind @bravebrowser @brave was kicked from Mozilla for being a bigoted piece of shit, and that he continues to be a piece of shit attacking the health care workers who saved millions of lives during the pandemic.

I switch to Brave from Firefox recently and prefer it more. What’s wrong with Brave?
@badgrandpa I linked his COVID denial comments above, but also he is a unrepentant bigot who supports the dehumanization of LGBTQIA+ people and was run out of Mozilla for this.
Brave is literally the browser built on bigotry, brought to us by white men who hate to see one of their own face consequences for such bigotry.
Well is democracy, freedom of speech he can say what he wants. I don’t know how this apply to the software. We all used hardware manufactured in china - totalitarian country - so we shouldn’t use the products made in china?
@badgrandpa
Here is some news for you: free speech has got legal limits.
@badgrandpa I’m not going to tell you what you should do about China. I’m telling you why I remind people that Brave is a bit of software funded by VC’s to keep a bigot employed.
I get that you may be cool with that. I’m not. And not enough people know who the CEO is or why Brave was founded.
Also, democracy nor freedom of speech have anything to do with this discussion. I am not the government. I am exercising my rights to call him out as a shit person, publicly.
