One can quite easily twist "we deny genocide is taking place" into "we don't support genocide." It's easy to say you don't support genocide when you're saying there's no genocide in the first place. Frankly, everything I've read about these guys is repellent and there's no way I'd be donating money to them. I gave money to Ernest, the developer of kbin, instead.
That said, though, this is completely true:
It's an open source program operating with an open protocol and they can't stop the rest of us from using it. If they ever try it'll just get forked. So I see no problem with having Lemmy be a major part of the Fediverse's infrastructure.
Exactly. I have no issue using the lemmy software (lord knows the developers of most other major social media platforms I've used in the past have had some messed up political views). But there's absolutely no way I'll be donating a penny to them. Ernest and admins of other major lemmy instances, yes, but not the tankie devs.
