@DryBird227 @freakazoid he never explicitly said that he believes that any and all of the people who are criticizing him and his projects are racist, no. But I think you are asking for an unreasonable standard of evidence here when I think his words taken together paint a pretty clear picture and if he meant that all people criticizing him were racist he would still never say that and insist he's a reasonable person who will accept reasonable criticisms because that would make him look reasonable.

Given the fact that he responded with vitriol to someone who was genuinely trying to learn about the project and asking pertinent questions about it, browbeat them, and then said ableist things to them, and given the way he has consistently framed and worded the people he refers to as racist, I think it absolutely does paint a picture. I don't think it's necessary for him to explicitly say that he thinks ALL of his critics are racist for that to be what he's doing, you have to read between the lines a little bit.

It's about virtue signaling and performing for their bigot friends..."

Him: that's the thing. They can't... We can't keep giving bigots the benefit of the doubt..."

Add that to him flying off the handle and browbeating someone: https://archive.ph/IHBX

And saying that he believes trans people don't face bigotry: https://archive.ph/odBTy

I think it paints a clear picture.
