#Vaguetooting: equating* objecting to systemd to MAGA is a level of bullshirt I've never seen before, nor thought possible.
*Disclaimer: This equating is an interpretation of a person's statement. That interpretation may be incorrect. Also, some people who object to systemd are indeed horrible people with horrible ideas/ideals/ideologies.
P.S. Using "don't divide us" as a dialectical hammer to quash debate is pretty forking awful. For the millionth time, what the fork is systemd, really?!? Because if you say "it's an init system," I'm going to put you in the same category as people who way "lol linux is just a kernel" and "I asked ChatGPT..."

in reply to ToTheStone • • •But XLibre was started not because of developer's anti-vaxer views.
Why some forks and new programs created by left/right radicals ā is another question. I think this "happens" because mass-media always ready to promote some hot content which will start flamewars and give a lot of views for these media. I suppose, in reality a lot of OpenSource projects still started by a usual people, who don't have radical views and just love to code. But these projects are not visible, because today
looks like popular to "change the world", "make actions", "fight with something" or "for something" and other loud words instead of silent, small and consecutive actions.

in reply to Eugene • • •What/whom (at least in the FOSS world) would you consider to be a Leftist radical, though?
The worst I've seen on the left is people with a surprising lack of perspective, and a scary capacity for self-delusion. The Right has that in spades, and much worse, in my experience.
