I say this with love for the global Linux community, but we need to be able to laugh at ourselves from time to time.

Not my Linux community. The fascist right doesn't make up all the linux community. They are just the loudest snowflakes in it.
The fuck does politics have to do with anything about this post? Sounds like the left are the loudest snowflakes around these parts of Lemmy, canβt accept a simple meme as is without dragging politics into it.
Are you angry that someone is critical of fascists? I wonder why that would be.
Yeah you can call it annoyed, there is absolutely no reason for politics to be dragged into a non-political meme, the radical left of Lemmy canβt see how hypocritical they can be.
It's because many of the people who hate on Rust and Wayland do so because they think these technologies are somehow too "woke" and not for any technical reason. I have no actual numbers for this though, it's just anecdotal based on my experience with a few popular YouTube videos I came across. And it looks like lots of others agree, so this meme comes off as political, even if that's not what was intended.
Oh, I thought the implication was that the imposition of rust and wayland were fascist. Particularly wayland, with the corporation, IBM, and its ruthless efforts to eliminate the competition and force everybody off X11.
Either way, choice is good. It's part of, and product of, Free Software philosophy.
Sorry bud, but arguing over the policy of whether Rust is allowed in the kernel is arguing about politics. We're sorry we got politics in your policy debate.
Found one!
