My comment actually added information (not being OS while posting a github link), to a previous China being hard pass comment.

While I agree that being from China is not problem, you continue harping on with it and completely disregard any discussion on my comment. Yes, this is really not complex.

I don’t know what clarifications are needed or why you felt the need to reply “yes but” to a “racism is bad, don’t do it” comment, it’s not a good look.

It’s kind of irrelevant that Open > close source. Many other comments have pointed this out, yours included but the issue at hand here is the remarks regarding OPs nationality/origin. If you want your ideas validated there are tons of comments in this thread doing so, you don’t need me to agree with it. I personally prefer OS, but don’t have any issues with closed source software. However, that’s not the issue at hand.

Comments like these and follow-ups like “yeah but actually it’s closed source”, that don’t immediately call out racism, end up normalizing this type of behavior which is not acceptable.

Would you also have sidestepped the obvious racism had OP been from Africa?

Say yes to OS software and no to racism, it shouldn't need to be said that ignoring racist remarks and/or glossing over them like they aren’t there promotes/enables that behavior.

When you pull out the racism card I don't find that you're arguing in good faith anymore. Good luck in your wokeness crusade.

There’s nothing bad faith about calling someone out for being a bigot but I agree with your sentiment that there’s probably not much left to discuss.

As an aside, is it really so hard to ask not to get bombarded with state department red scare propaganda anytime anything CN pops up? OP happens to be from CN, shares his work, and CPC comments are made.

There’s a serious lack of empathy around these parts and there really doesn’t need to be.
