what part of him being finnish-american has influenced his decision making?
He himself sprouted some fucked up lines in the episode of banning Russian devs from the LKML that could be resumed to "lol, cry me a river. I'm Finnish and you know what that means, right?"
And I guess you (is a Finn) too?
i'm not sure which one you're referring to, me "knowing what being finnish means" or saying those lines
i know what he's referring to cus there's a lot of finns that are russophobic and trying to excuse it with political stuff but it's not something specific to being finnish... not all of us are like that
I know not everyone is like that. Sorry if it sounded that way.
But nobody can excuse Linus here.
Banning Russian devs was (is?) so performative, impractical and stupid, and of course lots of "apolitical" projects display Ukraine flag emojis, but you say one word about not liking genocide...
Exactly
