he is developing it to deploy on Spinster and Graham Linehan's instance, Glinner.

@feld @realcaseyrollins

in case you don't know who that is, that's the guy who tried to make the NHS stop funding Mermaids, an organization that helps youth with gender dysphoria issues.

maybe this makes my frustration more clear

@kaniini
That doesn't really impact the code of #Spinster at all. It's just open source code. Who does it oppress in any real, practical sense?
@feld

@realcaseyrollins @feld

again, that's not the problem. it's the fact that he is doing this largely as labor for his buddy Glinner.

@kaniini
While this point is fair (assuming you're right and for the sake of discussion from your POV) I'm sure he'd be doing this even if Glinner was out of the picture.

Remember: this project isn't just for TERFs, it's for everybody.
@feld

@realcaseyrollins @feld

if the project is for everyone, then he should apologize for his work with Glinner, and change his ways.

because right now, the project is not really for everyone.

this is like saying a project run by the KKK is open to black people

@kaniini
Why? How does him working for Glinner make the code of #Soapbox evil?
