Comment on Framework supporting far-right racists?

  I think the rest of your response feels wrong in a fundamental way but I haven’t thought through why yet.

  Either that or a pair of opinions you hold conflict with each-other.

  Internal consistency is highly valued. As long as all opinions are treated with the same standards, then you have a nice steady base for your own views and how you interact with the world.

    Yeah I figured it out from another message: intent matters. Framework appears to intend to support bad people. Tankies support bad causes but appear to think they are good. That moves the question to “what is good”. Obviously white nationalists have a definition of good that I don’t agree with but they think they are doing good or at least claim as such. However I think I generally agree with tankies, broadly, on their definition of good. I just think they are self deluded into believing that the world simply isn’t as simple and awful as it appears to be. That having been said, my reference point for tankies is a few memes, so it may be that there’s depths of evil there that I’m not aware of. However what I’ve seen is that they seem to be pro workers rights, anti capitalist power, etc…all of which I broadly agree with.

      Framework appears to intend to support bad people.

      Framework intends to support open source projects. That has been their goal. Ascribing a different intent to it is just factually incorrect at best.

        If you tell me “I will use some of any money you give me to fund terrorism” and I choose to give you money anyway, I am deliberately funding terrorism.

        Framework is deliberately funding white nationalists.
