Yeah good luck with that. The righteous left doesn't want empathetic coexistence with alternative views any more than the immoral right does.
DHH has fairly normal right wing views. Nobody has been able to point me to anything so objectionable that should mean he is excluded from the community. The worst I could find is that he thinks it would be better if London was predominantly native British, which I don't think is an out-there idea.
These inclusive communities have to learn to be more actually inclusive. It's ok to ban him if he's harassing people due to their political views in the Ruby community, but it looks like all he did was post some moderately right-wing views on his blog.
Not going to hold my breath though.
I don't know anything about the Hyprland guy but I wouldn't be surprised if it's a similar story.
Yeah that would be reasonable if he actually did want to hang black people from trees.
He's literally spreading "great replacement" rethoric. If you can't see his racism, I got news for you.
Isn't "great replacement" a conspiracy that this is a deliberately plan by ethnic minorities? I don't see him claiming that anywhere.
His numbers are suss but the demographic change in London is dramatic (not as much as he claimed but still). Hopefully Wikipedia is an acceptable source.

So you do think the great replacement is happening, it just isn't intentional. About those news...
If you're asking if I know how to read a chart on Wikipedia, the answer is yes.
Reading a chart and understanding it are different things, a further different thing is understanding what it means in context.
This is a good book for learning the ins and outs of how to understanding statistical data in general.

It does come at it through the lens of intentionally deceptive practices but It's a good general introduction as well.
Ah, is it time to play dumb already?
You're so convinced that everyone who disagrees with you is some far right racist.
I don't even agree with DHH! But he clearly doesn't have view that are so out there that he needs to be cancelled. If anything the people screeching to ostracize him are more extreme.
The is exactly like the trans people vs JKR debating. The answer is in the middle, and JKR is definitely too strident in her views but also she isn't literally Hitler. You don't need to boycott board game companies because they happen to publish a Harry Potter game. Ffs.
I don't think everyone who disagrees with me is a far right racist. I think you are a racist because you believe in the great replacement. Jury's still out on whether you're far right but that completely irrelevant cancel culture rant at the end of your comment isn't helping your case.
I don't believe there is a conspiracy to replace native Londoners. You're putting words in my mouth. I do believe that it is happening because census data shows that it is! Do you not?
I should probably stop replying because you're just making up things that I have supposedly said (seems to be a theme here!)
The great replacement conspiracy is that demographic change is a deliberate plan by "elites". That's clearly absurd. It's happening despite their best efforts to stop it.
And when I say "it's happening", I mean in London, which is clearly an outlier.
