		solstice 77 days ago \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: Framework supporting far-right racists? While it can certainly be difficult for anyone to be aware of intra-community drama (especially if it's in semi-transient media like Discord), the moment someone makes you aware of deeply problematic issues is the moment when you have to make a choice how to respond. The fact that framework leadership responded to this by effectively downplaying the issues raised in the OP shows me that they are deeply misguided. Very disappointing.

At the same time, you cannot fix everything, and you cannot always take a stance on any topic.

Also, depending on your own sensibility, anything can be extremist far right or extremist far left.

So yeah... Cut the framework people some slack.
