Godot staff are facing a huge reactionary backlash on Xitter for being "woke"

It all started with the unofficial godot discord admin dealing with some chuds and people turning their ire towards the Godot Foundation staff instead.

Since Godot has stubbornly remained on the Xitter nazi bar as a valid space for PR and social media interaction and dared to promote the Wokot hashtag and reiterate their progessiveness, the reactionaries infesting that space are now piling on their socials and harassing everyone they can get their eyes on.

Examples

Anyway, solidarity with the targets of harassment. I hope they finally realize that Xitter is a lost cause.

Update: Godot is being review-bombed

Fortunately the reactionary backlash seems to be having the opposite effect

If you get political, people will react 🤷‍♂️
- Treating everyone like human beings is not political. It's common decency.
  
  Homobia, transphobia and racism are not political ideas.
  
  As you can see by the abuse they are now getting this is just shit people being shit.
  
  And even if this was political abusing workers for a company's political stance is also not a sane way to react.
  
  Unfortunately it is, and the way you think humans should react isn't actually how they do.
  
  No it's literally not. Being a bigot is not a political view.
  
  Politicians may use it to get votes from bigots.
  
  But hating black or gay people is not a valid political stance.
  
  The notion that you group a race people (or in fact any large group) by any characteristics has been scientifically disproven. There is no evidence to support that stance it is simply stupidity and/or hate. Often stemming from a lack of understanding of genetics or a general lack of understanding the wider world.
  
  It is also how they should react if they were a decent person. My point is they are not. They are in fact cunts.
