Yeah, I don’t know what’s going on here. Looks like a mod having a breakdown. I posted the rest for context and I’m in the middle.
I got linked to the comment chain from elsewhere. The comment had a link to a tech dude’s blog, supposed to point out his white supremecism. I didn’t see anything bad in that article, but stumbled on another one with nazi apologia, thought they may have linked the wrong article, posted it. That’s it. That’s all I did.
I guess it is called awful.systems and the culture confuses me, but man, what a dick move to call me a facist in the modlog.
If nothing else, I hope this drama is entertaining.
Edit: Because this is, well, the internet: I was not defending DHH. Another removed/banned comment said they couldn’t find anything bad in that link either, so I found one where DHH was being more blatant in his bullshit.
No, it was a generic message about work on systems and moving platforms.
Edit: Note that clicking these links gives DHH traffic.
OP posted this, saying it shows he sucks: https://world.hey.com/dhh/legacy-without-nostalgia-b19708c9

Ahh. Looks like anyone spreading links to fascist propaganda is being called a fascist?
I guess we’re not supposed to show how facists are being facists when people ask to show them the facism.
Correct. You don’t need to spread obscure blogs that push fascist ideology. OTOH, calling you a fascist seems like a really bad way of explaining that.
I disagree. The blog was already linked in the comment I responded to. Another user, who didn’t know about DHH’s bullshit, asked what was so bad about the benign article linked. I didn’t know if OP was being a shithead or just linked the wrong article, so I was saying “this guy is a dick because he said this.”
Propaganda doesn’t stop existing when the people who know better pretend it’s not there. I believe in bringing receipts when making a claim.
Calling out fascism is now fascism? What is antifascism now, ignoring them until it’s too late?
