Title of the (concerning) thread on their community forum, not voluntary clickbait. Came across the thread thanks to a toot by @Khrys@mamot.fr (French speaking)

The gist of the issue raised by OP is that framework sponsors and promotes projects lead by known toxic and racists people (DHH among them).

I agree with the point made by the OP :

The “big tent” argument works fine if everyone plays by some basic civil rules of understanding. Stuff like code of conducts, moderation, anti-racism, surely those things we agree on? A big tent won’t work if you let in people that want to exterminate the others.

I'm disappointed in framework's answer so far

It's pretty plain on DHH's blog: 

In 2000, more than sixty percent of the city were native Brits. By 2024, that had dropped to about a third. A statistic as evident as day when you walk the streets of London now.

I wonder what characteristic he uses to define « native brits » that can be seen when walking.

Or just take a look at his twitter. Which Framework obviously did since they retweet a lot of his posts...

The fuck is he on about even, he's Danish, not a native Brit. He should gtfo too if it's such an issue to him.

A breakdown of DHHs racist post, in case people don't want to look up the original
