CW: Transphobia, ableism, misgendering
I’ve posted a video from Nicco Loves Linux covering the whole situation to the libre community here for context.
TL;DR: Vaxry, the lead developer of the popular Hyprland wayland compositor and tiling window manager has been banned from ever contributing a patch to freedesktop, a highly influential software group that is responsible for the modern Linux Desktop. This was due to him violating freedesktop’s code of conduct because of his toxic discord community and crypto-fash blog. Vaxry then writes two screeds and throws a public temper tantrum, leading to inevitable clash when his nazi friends harass the freedesktop people.
(EDIT: Removed direct links to blog, the entire blog is pretty reactionary outside of the purely software related posts) The blog posts that got them banned:
Fun screenshot
: “I’M NOT MAD I’M NOT MAD”
Critical support to Red Hat Enterprise Linux and their never-ending crusade to destroy white people
they’re such snide little removed jesus fucking christ “um mind explaining to the class why you said it’s okay to bully transphobes?? but i’m not trying to start a hate campaign or anything, tee hee, but if anyone’s interested and motivated to dig through a trans woman’s social media for things to get mad at please be my guest.” shut the fuck up and pull the trigger you worthless shithead.
Vaxry pulling up a trans person social media page on his blog to complain about her transness while also being put on blast for transphobia to subsequently being banned
I don’t even mind the people who agree with Vaxry (because they are all transphobic neckbeard shitheads who have never talked to a trans person in real life) but the liberals who play the civility game and say that the trans person and the crypto-fash antisocial creep are both bad because one of them used their company email.
