Well I'm sure there are a lot of right wing movements and some of them are aggressive but I personally only mind people who don't respect others and I haven't found a difference between left wing and right wing people in terms of that. However left leaning ones do it in disguise and lie about themselves so my choice was obvious. I value honesty too after all.

Being left or right doesn't make you good or bad. There are plenty of reasonable right-wing groups. However few to none of them identify as right wing. The Democrats in the United States for instance. A staunchly, solidly right-wing group. That most people somehow mistakenly think are left wing.

No, the people desperate to identify themselves with vagaries such as left or right. Almost without exception are some of the worst most horrible people you'll ever meet. Only trying to deny the failures of their ideas, or deflect from the horrible things they want to do to others. Leninists and fascists are both Prime examples of this.

Anyone who talks or acts like DEI is a problem is a clown who deserves to be ridiculed. Its possible to have substantive nuanced criticism of DEI. Left or right. But DEI isn't the problem. The people whining about it typically are.

Wait, what? How did politics come into this? Did they talk about DEI in the README? I didn't read the whole thing.

That would be disappointing.

It's in the readme. Several comments above this and around this all mention it. You can search for it and you will find it.

Dei really shouldn't be considered politics of course. It should just be a part of being a decent person. But those who persecute others or don't care about the persecution of others at least. Always have to put on a show to make everything about them. How acknowledging traditionally excluded people is somehow an attack or imposition on them
