Man, FUCK Reich-wingers!!! They destroy everything they touch.

TY for doing the right thing, PSF!

[–] david_@discuss.tchncs.de 18 points 3 months ago

My respect!

Massive W in my mind. I've always loved Python even though I'm quite amateur at it. After hearing about this, I will be a long time fan for sure.

Someone in Europe will give them a better deal by the end of the week.

Respect to the PSF for doing this. It was both the smart choice and the right choice.

Didn't join PSF for the same reasoning they turned down this loan. Agreeing to a code of conduct or adhering to some random foreign and self-destructive ideology (whatever that may be), at all costs, has nothing to do with coding or running an organization.

So PSF folks are doing to us the same as the US govt is doing to them. There is no difference. Oh the irony is sweet.

It's good these idiots are not getting US tax slave funding. Being priests of the DEI religion is more important to them than good stewardship of PSF and Python.

And i support tech organizations and projects being well funded. Just not priests.

Honestly, blink twice if youre in a cult that makes you think having codes of conduct so people can focus on the project and not be attacked for who their are is "a religion".

It gets better brother just got let go of that kind of garbage holding you back

This is pure relativism… No good, no bad, all is the same…
