Let me sum up the reasons.

DHH wrote a blog post on his experience with immigration in the UK. Some people think that makes him a Nazi. He also runs the omarchy distribution.

There was a transphobic post on hyprland‘s Discord, which was unmoderated at the time.

It's not one comment from hyperland, it's an harasement campain that led them to be baned from freedesktop.org and rightfully so.

And the blog post you liked is a rant that there not enough white people in london while supporting the tommy robinson march ( a nazi event ).

[–] frezik@lemmy.blahaj.zone 27 points 6 months ago

Funny how there's already people downplaying how bad it actually is.

[–] Samskara@sh.itjust.works 0 points 6 months ago (1 children)

I did not like that blog post.

[–] curbstickle@anarchist.nexus 10 points 6 months ago (1 children)

You sure seem to be defending it a lot though.

[–] Samskara@sh.itjust.works 2 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago) (1 children)

I linked it to give people the opportunity to read and form their own opinion. Posting a link is now defending?

DHH has been a controversial person for decades. I understand when people don’t want to be connected to him.

[–] curbstickle@anarchist.nexus 13 points 6 months ago

You started off calling it all overblown, without even looking at all the other right wing blog posts he's made.

Thats putting a pretty hefty slant to start things off, yeah.

[–] WolfLink@sh.itjust.works 21 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago) (1 children)

That blog post is quite racist, or at the very least, xenophobic.

[–] curbstickle@anarchist.nexus 6 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Why am I not surprised you think that one post is the only issue.

[–] Samskara@sh.itjust.works 0 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Well, it was the only one that I know of. If you know others, then please share.

[–] curbstickle@anarchist.nexus 11 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Sure, here's a quote of a comment I made on the other post:

They said a hint of the kind of person, you took that to nazi. There is a lot more up on DHH's blog... including complaining about being called a nazi, btw.

Because, you know.... he's a nazi. Even that "wahhhh" post is just full of nazi talking points.

Edit: Just to be clear, this is not the only example.

I really don't understand how anyone can say he isn't what he is - a nazi.
