Hi, Thank you for your comment, Rory. You seem like a reasonable person. Thank you for talking about the subject in a casual way and without the fanaticism that others often show when their ideas are criticized.
I was censored on an informal communication channel of the OSM community in Spain. I can speak as a person affected by the decision of those who do not know how to disassociate their personal (or group) ideology from OSM affairs. I was accused of using their contact channel to share messages with "political and ideological" content. It is false, absolutely false, ridiculously false, an infamous lie. I have never had any discussion of political content on any OSM communication channel, formal or informal. I never talk about politics, not even with my friends. On the other hand, I am usually very respectful of the rules of the community, so I will hardly make improper use of OSM communication channels. I have my own opinions about anti-fascist symbols. I will not share my opinions with you because, as always, I never discuss politics in OSM communication channels. I don't think we should bring political discussions to these forums. They do not benefit us. Let's the OSM Foundation or their legal group decide on the appropriate use of their logos. The Foundation is the owner of the rights, so let's them decide. There are some points in your message that I don't agree with. Or at least, not how they're posed. But whatever, it's the same. I don't care what everyone individually thinks of the project or whatever everyone thinks is its inherent ideology. I am only interested in the fact that all these ideas, prejudices or beliefs do not interfere with our work and collaboration. The proper use of the OSM marks is best left to the Foundation to decide. Greetings from Spain.
