Mine is that the useState hook is an actual plague on the entire React ecosystem. Regardless of your opinions of React, if you wanna use something then use it right.

People in FOSS community (including users) nitpick way too much about eachother’s ethics and are mostly dictators so they expect everybody’s views to align with themselves and each sub-community/individual see themselves as the source of moral balance.
“oh no one of project XYZ maintainers doesn’t like trans people we should boycott the project and fork it into LibreLGBTQXYZ”
be professional ffs. See the project as the software and it’s technicality, art, science and engineering. we can’t be too picky about individual people’s beliefs and ethics especially in current situations.
Transphobia is now what antisemitism was during the Holocaust.
This framing of trans rights being pulverized as an edge-case moral purity signaling is low-key genocide enabler discourse.
It is only a matter to be careful to set boundaries to the centrism so that it doesn’t bleed over to the nazi side.
That being said, weaponized purity in online politics, and online software politics specifically might be a problem, sometimes. Minimal gain and huge inconvenience to the resistance, but I won’t go into it right now.
Is it really a genocide? Like I’m trans and being pushed towards losing my life, and that’s bad, but it feels weird calling that a genocide when you compare it to the actual Holocaust or Palestine or the Sudanese civil war. For it to qualify I think I’d have to be arrested and executed for being trans, not just driven to suicide because I don’t have any friends and no employers will hire me.
Yes. Trans or not, you must be not listening to your own words, thinking that the Holocaust started in 1941, not in the vilification and anti-Jewish legislation during the Nazi dictatorship. And this is a successful strategy for current genociders, having an outrageous, colossal example of industrialized terror to terminate thought.
Your argument is like, “can you really call anything murder when Dahmer ate so many people? Just killing somebody can’t be murder in comparison”. No, it is not a relative quantity, is a yes or no question, based on specific international criteria.
The answer to which is “Yes”. Having numbers of people drawn to suicide because you banned their health care on religious fundamentalist grounds is textbook genocide. The only debate between experts is because trans people are not immediately recognized as an ethnic or religious group. (But, well, the reasoning of a hate crime is a burden of the perpetrator, isn’t it? They’re killing us for religious reasons, so in my opinion this is not even a debate.)
BTW, it is the same state-actors pushing both genocides, so your whataboutism comes home to bite you. You are either able to see through the lying teeth of genocide criminals, or you believe what other people want you to think.

Banning the healthcare of a minority group, systemically refusing to recognize their existence, treating them as a group with less rights, banning them from certain spaces, making them face horrific conditions when incarcerated, supporting hatred against them that leads to killings…
Okay, yeah, that does make sense.
