Not wanting to support shitty people is fucking common sense, not a "mentality."

[–] kartoffelsaft@programming.dev 7 points 2 days ago

True, but after the incident happened it seemed as though some people did everything in their power to make it look like a mentality to him (i.e. combing through his past posts to see if he himself said anything yikes to prove to everyone how shitty he is). The "shove it up your ass" comment is enough to point to, so pointing to the (now deleted, might I add) statutory rape comment feels more like having a hate boner for the guy and that your goal is to moreso make you hate him as much as you rather than just the plain 'don't buy the game from this guy, he's a reactionary'.

Talking about software development is shitty people?

[–] SarahValentine@lemmy.blahaj.zone 12 points 2 days ago (1 children)

There are shitty people in software development. I can't believe someone has to tell you this.

Has kovarex really done anything that bad? This seems like a stupidly high standard. Like you can't have ever said anything bad and if someone digs up a thing you said ages ago your are now outcast and anything you ever make must be banned. Fuck that.

You know how the wokies are: holier than thou. They'd never done a mistake in their whole lifes and they know the only moral way of life and which opinions to hold. That's why they're really able to judge good from evil so clearly.
