I don't really have much context and I do not know those people but every time this type of post pop up on HN I read it. It is obvious those people are mentally ill and terminally online.

And it is not even about politics and woke, I do not think there were any political statement here. It is just obvious this again was written by a crazy person.

So some people had a problem with the Nix leadership for years, they made numerous drama and forked the project (as they have the right to). But strangely none of those forks really got any traction or are going anywhere it seems...

I am wondering why are those unhappy contributors helping the Lix project or some other forks?

There may not have been political statements here but the people doing this absolutely are motivated by their politics.

Presumably they aren't helping forks because they despair of any fork getting anywhere near the traction of the original.

But that shouldn't be NixOS's problem.
