1Password faced immediate backlash from customers this week over a $300,000 pledge in support of a Linux distro created by David Heinemeier Hansson, who has regularly published overtly racist blog posts that include comments calling for deportation of ethnic minorities in Europe. The popular password manager is now a “distinguished corporate patron” of Omacom, the nonprofit foundation that oversees a popular Linux distribution known as Omarchy.

    All right windscribe.

    Thing is with Mullvad is that I know for a fact that they don't keep logs. The cops raided their place twice and they learned after that that there's no point. They let them in and do whatever they wanted- they knew they wouldn't find anything.

    That type of trust is hard to come by.

    Fuck nazis man, they infect the best of us. Such a copout. I suppose it's something about... They get sentimental in their old years and remember a country that is no longer there- I feel that shit too, but I don't get caught up in nationalist cosplay and LARP parties about it, shit changes, we need to fight for it without being fucking nazis. There's a middle road here I feel.

    Sorry, I just got rambling, didn't mean to, but damn.

    It's overwhelming and keeps me up at night.

    I'm more than prepared to fight it. Just awaiting orders.

    Meh I'm being dramatic. Sort of. I fight, we all fight.

    What is that quote, under tyranny every democratic act is an act of rebellion? I paraphrase.
