1 day agoIt irks me to no end that both here and in the framework community forum people will try to downplay just how awful DHH and their ilk are.
They’ll never say that they don’t mind supporting someone who’s transphobic, or a nationalist, or a racist. Instead they’ll just say that you need to separate the art from the artist, or that you’re just engaging in “purity tests” or whatever other bullshit reason they can throw to absolve themselves from supporting objectively shitty people.
I’d assume the transphobic part is where DHH goes to bat for Shrier, who is transphobic, and he’s glad that she’s overcome the “censorship mob”. Oh and also the part where he recommends people read said transphobic author’s book.
Do you need to be spoonfed any more? The blog post isn’t that long.
