First your logic makes zero sense for me. I am deeply touched by the pain embedded in the stories I read in books and personal witness accounts of several relatives that were present during Great Fire of Smyrna and the Nazi Occupation. My grandparents were "lucky" enough to suffer both and spared no details of the atrocities they witnessed. These stories have shaped my entire personal identity and guides me in life to respect and tolerate others. If i really needed to live in a non democratic regime to understand this then I would feel that I let these people down (which I so dearly love) and I could never imagine myself doing that. If you want to know I am hardcore supporter of democracy , especially direct technocratic (technology and science based) democracy. So your reply makes me smile more than frustrate me because of how far from the truth you really are. I was referring to Pharo and was definitely did not suggest to take arms and kill anyone who disagrees with us. As I already explained even in a democracy there is a chain of command and frankly a forum is a lousy way to exercise democratic leadership. Not all participate here and messages are about complains and questions not praise. So its a bad representation of the community feelings though a great way to exchange knowledge an help each other. Its much easier and efficient to have a central committee as Pharo has that makes these decisions obviously by taking into account the community and what the users really want. Also as I stated form the start I do not have a problem with making or not making the dark theme the default theme. What I do like however is that we have a leadership that take decisions without having to apologise for them. They try to do their best to make the community happy and I think they do a pretty good job at it. Taking into account how extremely popular dark themes really are. Do not worry you wont be hearing or reading about my political beliefs, here or anywhere, I rarely mention them. People find them hard to digest and I am not very diplomatic at presenting them, but I am working on it :) In any case I am not offended by your remarks, I know you mean well and you just used my message as a way to express your anger for things unrelated to me. I respect your anger and your pain and I hope you find the healing you deserve and a happy life.
