Heard they stole it from a trans woman. Wouldn't that make the kbin dev transphobic?
Edit: Wow a lot of transphobes already downvoting ne
Only in the same way that stealing code from a PoC would make me racist, stealing code from a Jew would make me anti-semitic or stealing code from a woman would make me sexist.
Since, without proof of any of that you're just making shit up I'm going to go with the reason that your post is being downvoted is that ITS JUST FUCKING STUPID.
Actually had to re-read old mates comment above us to see if I was missing satire / sarcasm. Like no way anyone legitimately thinks like this? ๐คฏ
I've got some unfortunate news for you
Please don't derail the thread with this accusation, you're not helping. Stick to the topic at hand (the license being willfully violated) and don't speculate.
No, it wouldn't.
That wasn't your question.
Doing something shitty to a trans person is only transphobia when you're doing it because they're trans, yet you've provided no substantive evidence for this claim. It also does not align with what Ernest has said in this thread and others. Saying shit like this without evidence is trashy and irresponsible and THAT is why you're being down voted. Do better.
That's not how transphobia works. That's straight up US conservative victim complex type of framing.
K
You're getting downvoted because you're spouting rubbish without actually providing any evidence, not because people are "transphobic".
Not every unfortunate action that happens to trans people can be attributed to people being "transphobic", like it's a coordinated attack
Why would you know personal details about anyone in GitHub?
Found out here
Why would you seek to "find out"? It's personal, GitHub is for code
Ask them, not me. I found it through the raddle link at the top comment.
But you amplified that info with your comment, seems odd to do so
Probably putting out another strawman argument to make the situation much worse than it actually it. Making it go from a scenario where licensing wasn't followed correctly to a proposed new outrage where hard work from stolen from a trans person. Pathetic
Why did you bold? The text was already legible
