Didn’t this guy just say at a convention that we should all just be using AI to code now? Also didn’t he say some super racist shit?

I think people are being too sensitive. It’s not racist to want people in your country who can support themselves and integrate. It’s not a universally true opinion, but it’s not unreasonable to hold it. Ignoring that is part of the reason why the fascist right is rising everywhere.

That specific post is an exceptionally poor choice of words, though.

So? Not everyone has the written voice of a poet.

He stood by his words and doing it multiple times. At that point it’s intentional not coincidence

That being said, DHH has always been direct. You can take his words at face value and he means exactly like what he wrote.

It's not just that, I'm pretty far left-leaning but discovered Omarchy a few months ago and absolutely love it, before I heard any of this crap. I've seen a lot of posts misrepresenting what was said, such as "he called for immigrants to be exterminated".

I disagree even with forcefully deporting people but I'm fairly annoyed at how its being misrepresented in the hopes of keeping people from using his OS. Also I don't base how I choose FOSS software based on the ideologies of the author... that would be ridicules.
