   DHH has now gone even more full “send ‘em back where they came from” along with “stop trying to fix climate change” and “AI hypercapitalism yay”

   I cannot express enough, FUCK THIS WHITE NATIONALIST ARSEHOLE, and anyone not wanting to cut the #Ruby and #Rails communities ties with him should be *fucking ashamed of themselves*.

     I am ashamed of the fact that I’m stuck on #Rails because of the sunk costs of what I’ve already built, as are *so many* other project like Mastodon.

     We cannot “just move”, the cost is enormous.

     The Rails core team seem utterly compromised and under his spell. Nobody will speak out.

     We need a hard #RailsFork. Now. And we need to coordinate to do it together and build a team.

     I’m in. Who else?
