The fact that PewDiePie might have a right-leaning following, that he acquired by himself leaning right, which he now exposes to Freedom, using Libre Software, might actually be a good thing. Since exposing yourself to the philosophy of Free Software eventually leads to human rights and thus to the left, in a way. If PewDiePie course-correcting to the left like this, taking his enormous subscriber-base with him, IMO it is very good.
There's plenty of neo-nazis in the Free Software movement. It's "Free Software", not "Free People"
sometimes it feels that there are more cryptofascists in the movement than other ideologies. luke smith is a prime example.
Nazis are everywhere, not just OSS. Never seen one in OSS though
Lunduke?
