Yep, if you let a nazi play in your band you have a nazi band, just like with the bar (or Framework computers 😿).

    My brother complains about black metal for that reason a lot. Finds a good band, finds out they are nazis, now he’s gotta find stuff that sounds like them that isn’t made by nazis, which is a harder task in black metal than other genres.

    Makes me happy that I’m into doom and sludge, just a bunch of fat guys writing songs about space dragons, wizard fights, how awesome beer and weed are, and kaijus.

    Every time I listen to Gallowbraid, I am sad that they only have one album. What a shame. Fantastic music.

    They (Gallowbraid) performed at Fortress Festival a couple of weeks ago which I choose to take as an encouraging sign that new stuff might be on the horizon.

    And yeah, any project Margaret's involved in is an instant 'yes' from me.

    I love lists of black metal band names, they’re so creative.

    “Alright, gang, time to name the band. What name would manage to tell people we hate Christianity, hierarchy, and societal concepts, but also tells them that we’re super into The Lord of The Rings and D&D?”

    Hell yea, I missed that tour when they came through town but saw each of them previously when they've come through.

    Last night was monolord and mizmor, epic show

    I wish Monolord would come through my town, those guys rip.

    Glad you got to see them, though, especially Conan, they kick so much ass. I love Conan more than human rights. I love Conan so god damned much. They are the apotheosis of doom metal.

    What about system of a down?

    They're obviously very left leaning in everything they've done. And yet it turned out the drummer was a magat all along and the only thing they rest of the band can get him to agree on anymore is that the Armenian genocide was wrong.

    I get the sentiment and as soon as something like that comes out the rest of the band may need to re-evaluate the band. But with soad and how openly liberal they've been consistently with their songs and politics outside of the band, would you still think soad is a maga band?

    I personally think the drummer is a dumbass with 0 critical thinking skills. The band is still unapologetically left leaning in it's songs and messaging despite the drummer.

    Nothing. This a stupid, self defeating comment by op. Copied from Reddit: "Framework decided to sponsor Hyprland, which is basically a Linux GUI. It has also apparently been promoting Omarchy, which I first heard about yesterday when this came up, so can't say too much about that.

    Creator of Hyprland is controversial to say the least, and he has been pretty much ousted from the open source community."

    Saying sponsoring hyprland makes framework nazi is one of the stupidest things I've seen on the internet in a long time

    The problem isn't Framework sponsoring or featuring nazis (pretty sure they just didn't know). The problem is that when people told them: "Hey, you're promoting people that literally want to kill me, I don't feel save here anymore". They didn't make a clear statement that they're anti fascist but said some corporate marketing bullshit about big tents and inviting everyone (which I personally and many others understood as them being cool with nazis in their mids as well because they didn't want to scare away investors).
