In this video Bitcoin Mechanic explains how Monero’s main competitor Bitcoin Core became infected with Woke, and why that endangers Bitcoin’s long-term survival.
Some say “Code is Code”, but that is childish thinking, and not how the world actually works.
FOSS commits are political, and always have been.
Watch the video I posted and see how this is simply not true.
I think I didn’t use strong enough language. Open source allies are people contributing meaningful code and deploying real world systems.
People who raid the organization to get their agenda into a behavior policy, code of conduct, into the mission statement don’t care about the project they are burdening with this political overhead.
Drive by github committers who change language for some agenda are not contributing meaningfully to a project.
These organizational parasites are, however, VERY common in any organization that has reach, or is open. The calculus of who to use for political ends is just a function of how much work for how much reach… walled off and closed societies are a ton of work, but a open source project is hungry for contributors/maintainers/documenters/cheerleaders so they are easy to infiltrate for the limited reach they might have.
