Citing your own (uncited) source: https://archive.ph/jN4bI Paragraph prior to your copied paragraph: This is an independent project, not at all affiliated with BigTech or any of their subsidiaries or tax evasion tools, nor any political activists groups, state actors, etc. It's explicitly free of any "DEI" or similar discriminatory policies. Anybody who's treating others nicely is welcomed notably: "free of any "DEI" or similar _discriminatory_ policies", which is an explicitly political statement on "DEI" policy. This could be excused, if not for after the cited paragraph the statement "Together we'll make X great again!" was thrown in, a direct reference to "Make America Great Again", the slogan of the current US president, and the one who populared the term "DEI" as a political badword like "woke" and "marxist" and used it to delete a very large number of federal employees. You think we're stupid, and that no one will put in basic research into the latest {lunduke,luke smith}-esque grifter using 2010's stormfront doublespeak strategies on open source projects hoping to sacrifice the project for political power. What I'm reading about the quality of the diffs here seems to support that.
