    What’s most annoying about this is Dessalines acting as if Muslims are a monolith (which itself is lowkey racist and dehumanizing to treat entire demographics as monoliths) and as if dictators speak for their people. Have they never considered the possibility that Muslim countries haven’t denounced the genocide because their leaders have material incentives to deny it? I mean lord knows the US has officially denied genocides for the sake of geopolitical self-interest.

    Having level-headed social opinions is not a requirement for being a good software dev. We need to stop judging these people for having opinions that have absolutely nothing to do with their purpose.

    These people are better than you.

    Get fucked.

    Sincerely,

    Notch, Richard Stallman, Linus Torvalds, John Carmack, Hans Reiser and every other programmer who puts their code in front of your feelings.

      Being willing to code as a hobby is not something I would consider makes someone “better than me.”
