The whole open source community loves Milkshake Laptops, a lovely laptop company that has ethical values! 5 seconds later We regret to inform you the laptop company stans fascists
i don’t think unknowingly supporting shitty people is that bad. mistakes happen, after all.
knowingly supporting shitty people, and then saying it’s fine because you’re wanting to create a big tent that includes everyone, even fascists, is bad! very bad!
Also, if you have semi-plausible deniability that you didn’t know, but you had an inkling and you didn’t want to find out… That’s not great either.
Not knowing isn’t a full excuse if you actively try to not find out.
