What? You might want to think about what you said for like 2 more seconds. Why on earth would I not hate or even help someone who aligns themselves with a Nazi? You can absolutely hate the creation of a tool based on the political reasons it is being created.
I don’t need a project to explicitly say they are DEI inclusive, I generally don’t care who is contributing, but when you explicitly state you are against it in the README of your project that is just wild. The only divide I’m increasing by saying I don’t support or respect people who choose to, and makes it very clear they are, excluding people based on diversity is a divide they’ve created for themselves. Especially when it’s a fucking open source software project, like wtf does DEI have to do with it that the owner has to bring it up to begin with if not to intentionally hurt someone.

It’s called a dogwhistle: they’re letting other racist scumbags know that they are also racist scumbags and that their racist scumbag views are welcome, without saying anything overtly racist scumbag-y.

You can do whatever you want and people can criticize you for it.

It’s not wild and you’re just too reddit-brained to ignore it.
