sending me threats? As I said, I have not posted anything in this thread.

lol, "far left".

Far left is to consider that we need a revolution to overthrown the ruling 
class (the the bourgeoisie) in order to socialize de means of production. Not 
to consider that every human being has the right to consider themselves as they 
please and makes them feel more in sync with the world, without being abused by 
people that believes they have the right to judge others choices.

But go ahead, "leftist"... what else you consider is a perfectly acceptable 
opinion ? (Is just a rhetorical question, I really do not want to hear your 
opinions). No wonder why you feel better at twitter than any other option... 
but hey, we are not forbidding you to go deep in that shithole and express your 
''leftist' self there along with all the other leftists that hang along with 
Elon Musk and other fascists (or alike) like him.

Esteban

ps: another "perfectly reasonable" opinion like that and you will get a ban 
from our lists, not just from bluesky. But don't worry, you will be able to go 
and protest to twitter.

The pharo community is going the way of the python community. Where perfectly 
acceptable political opinions ("trans women are not real women") are suppressed 
under the guise of "breaks community standards".I've noticed more and more 
programming groups have gone so far left because of echo chamber feedback 
loops. They, as a result, don't see how crazy they make themselves look to 
normal people. 

People who disagree with your political opinions are not "nazis". You are being 
unfair to the 50% of people who have a differing opinion.

Hello steven 

 

We have a great community and we should not throw away the baby with the water 
of the bath (sorry for english readers

I do not know if the direct translation of a french expression makes any sense 
but you can probably get it). 

 

We will do what we want and do not care about people that do not contribute and 
not in a positive mindset.

Let us continue to make Pharo great and fun because it is a great and fun 
system. 

 

I will continue to focus on PRs that improve Pharo.

 

No need to reply to this thread because I put a filter to trash any emails :)

 

S,

This is how nazi work: they infiltrate communities and their only contribution 
is to jump into discussions to fight anything related to people wanting to be 
safe from their bullshit.

He did the same thing (with others) a few years ago for the code convenant 
stuff.
He is doing this right now again.

The vocabulary is all there: "echo-chamber", "wrong political opinion", 
"tolerant", "leftist"... just all the nazi words they try to impose in 
community discussions.
Once we accept, we lose.

Nice and diplomatic discussions do not work with nazis.
So why are we tolerating this? He is not even contributing to Pharo.

Between this and the guy who harasses my students at ESUG, I wonder what 
fucking bullshit community we have become.

I have nothing to do anymore in this community.

Steven.

I heard enough stories the other way round being on X with the "wrong political 
opinion". It works either way. The way you experience it is not so much an 
artefact of the social media platform but the mindset you have.

Bluesky is an echo chamber that will ban you for having the wrong political 
opinion. Twitter is much more open to differing viewpoints.

Thanks a lot.

It's refreshing to see more people participating the so called #eXodus 
and having better forms to connect.

Cheers,
