hm, i thought KDE was trying to make up for platforming the nazi. lots of people today saying "let's give KDE a chance!" nope, they're now doubling down further. this post is a study in the art of nazi apologetics in online discourse - removing the content of the issue and leaving only a description phrased to sound innocent. what happened is that the straight-up nazi was posting, someone identified that this person was a straight-up nazi, the nazi admitted they were that nazi, then KDE banned the person calling out the nazi and kept the nazi the social media person sympathising here with the nazi tries to claim that calling out the nazi is equivalent to real world violence. https://archive.ph/dPms4#selection-1304.0-1304.1

@davidgerard@circumstances.run “What happened is akin to someone walking into a restaurant and seemingly randomly punching another patron. They're going to get thrown out.” not even slightly, but ok. I think walking into a restaurant and punching someone spewing hatred who admits to being a nazi is a favor to the restaurant, actually

@davidgerard@circumstances.run Person behind the KDE account and Nate are not the same person. They are not in sync. Both have different perspectives lol

say @davidgerard@circumstances.run , are you still blocked by the #KDE Masto account? because they seem to be expanding their block list today. the offending comment that lead to the block seems to have been me explaining to someone in KDE's comments that yes, svin is in fact a person who deserves the label "Nazi". great job on the "inclusivity" value of your manifesto y'all! truly the logical next step after dismissing the anti-AI parts of the KDE community as an external pressure campaign was to double down.
