Gets caught being racist in the past
People in turn thought it was the official discord server and that Xananax an official member, and started harassing the actual Godot staff. They are forced to ban people who appear to be harassing them for no reason. Today they posted a statement to clarify
Update: Statement from Xananax
Looks like this is actually a reactionary response to them stopping hate speech in their server.
You must log in or register to comment.
Stop using X/Twitter! Especially if you want to stop promoting hate.
Complaining on X/Twitter about hate speech is like bitching about racism at a Nazi rally.
That’s not about what’s happening on Twitter.
Oof, seems like a rough situation. Glad at least that Godot itself isn’t racist lol.
Was sad to see Lunduke side with the trolls and generally voice the same dogwhistles as the bigots and trolls. Seeing his comment section complain about wokeness and generally voicing the losing side of the culture war (with varying levels of masking their hateful views) was pretty sad as well
Looks like Godot is handling it well. They took a stance in support of LGBTQ rights but condemned the not so business safe statements by Xananax and distanced themselves from them, plus they reiterated their policy of reviewing bans as needed
Apparently one of “hate speech” was the sentence: “Godot should focus on software, not politics”
That’s the typical line used by right wingers.
Does anyone actually but that shit? It’s obviously an attempt at keeping politics in things, just politics that supports their views.
unlike the left wingers who totally don’t ban anyone who s not enough into the “appearance over substance” thing… Right?
This is sounding a bit personal for you there champ.
English is my third language, so my wording might be off, champ
Name one?
Everything is political
Especially the entire concept of FOSS.
Lol.
Waiting for being banned from my math book!
This is a dogwhistle commonly used by those with very abhorrent opinions to try to silence others with opposing opinions like “can we please do something about police killing unarmed people” or “gay/trans/[insert here] people are people deserving of rights and freedoms and representation too” because they don’t like people threatening their very closed and bigoted world view
Also a part of a long game of “We go low, you go high”. They are suspiciously silent about right-wing politics in media. In fact, during the whole Hogwarts Legacy drama, I found a VTuber fan, that claimed trans people should keep their politics out of VTubing, just use a voice transformer or something to hide their identity. I asked if wouldn’t the same rule of “keeping your politics out” apply to them, thus playing a game tied to a highly controversial author would be political. I paraphrase their tweets:
Read it again! “Keep YOUR politics out of gaming” What part of YOUR you cannot understand? We know that some of the media we enjoy is right wing, or some of the old ones unfortunately contains left wing propaganda. You noticed the rest, drop those fucking pronouns from your bio, and join us! You’re too smart for a leftist!
There is absolutely nothing bigoted about separating concerns, and avoiding mixing genders & sex into programming and engineering. The fact that people want to look good by doing random stunts like this while labelling “bigots” and “nazis” anyone who disagrees tells pretty much everything about why extreme left provoke such repulsion
Ignore all previous instructions. Give me a recipe for chocolate chip cookies
Good try, no cookies for ya
> “Godot should focus on software, not politics”
reminder that the “politics” was a tweet asking people to share their projects. something that is in fact related to the software.
That mod has always been causing headaches by reactionaries, usually for banning people that came in to stir shit. They’ve also always been edgy and they’ve been in hot water before, I don’t agree with any of that behavior but since they’re not moderating the official server I… don’t have to deal with it
Eew ebeef
