    Linus is from Finland. Finns barely tolerate Russians under usual circumstances. These are not usual circumstances.

      True he could have banned them long ago, it’s his project in the end, but he didn’t, he only did it after the sanctions

      If he did that that would have been genuine discrimination. If he has to do it now because of sanctions, then ok fine. But otherwise I don’t want to see an open source project treating people differently based on where they were born.

      Come on lemmy, how is this pro-racism comment upvoted so many times? Please, think.

      It is genuine xenophobia. I like in Poland, and its like you’re either a homophobe, or a xenophobe- with pretty limited inbetween. (And there are plenty of people who are both)

        I mean, that’s like calling a Native American racist for disliking European (white) Americans. Like sure, technically, but aren’t there some underlying issues at play that make the feeling more justified.

          Technically America belongs to Native Americans and the occupation of their soil is still going but you don’t hear racists tantrums against europeans. Perhaps you should study Native American culture i believe you can get something from it.

            I think many racists do in fact say Native Americans are throwing racist tantrums when they work towards gaining even the most basic of human rights.
