Normalized Fascism in Open Source: $12 Million Given to DHH · brennan.day https://brennan.day/normalized-fascism-in-open-source-12-million-given-to-dhh/ > Open source has become a safe harbor for far-right politics, from David Heinemeier Hansson's white-nationalist rhetoric and the Omarchy Foundation's $12 million in patron funding to so-called apolitical projects that treat marginalized contributors as political, and why a united boycott of complicit tech companies is our only way forward. #DHH
