All Pharo users should be here. Political views, including yours, have no place here.

Keep the discussion 100% Pharo. This a purely technical group. We should have no interest in each others political views. Even Hitler himself could participate.

Kind Regards

Can we ban him already?

Is this not proof enough that he's on the nazi side??

Are we "tolerating nazis"???

There is no evidence that elon Musk is a "nazi" and i am baffled that seemingly everyone on this list thinks he is. There is ZERO evidence. Also, I am a big fan of his. I admire him greatly. And I am no adolf hitler fan either.

    Hello pharoers, here are my 2 cents:

    Billionaires should not exist.
    Elon musk is a nazi & billionaire, 2 good reasons to avoid giving
    him any money, so fuck twitter/x.
    I don't know much about bluesky but that it's funded by private
    investors so it will likely become another twitter one day,
    because the capital always support the fascists.

    Cheers

        Perhaps we can return to the original assertion:
        " Bluesky is an echo chamber that will ban you for having the
        wrong political opinion. Twitter is much more open to
        differing viewpoints.  "

        That has nothing to do with Pharo, so I for one would rather
        not see non-Pharo discussions on Pharo
        lists/channels/fora/whatever.

        Perhaps, you could take your political discussions, your
        gender discussions, your sexuality discussions, etc. to some
        other, more relevant forum.

            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.

                    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.
