During the AI policy discussion on https://invent.kde.org/plasma/plasma-workspace/-/work_items/187 someone called a KDE contributor out for their bigotry. KDE banned the person calling them out and removed all the comments.

I guess it's official. Fascism is allowed. Calling it out is not.

I noticed those comments were removed today. Cheers for finding the archive of them.

The turn KDE has taken is absolutely astonishing. I regret the donations I've made to them :(

Edit: they did ultimately ban the racist, though it's not a great look that the person exposing the racist was also banned.

This is not debate club. Unless it’s amusing debate.
