@jerry @luigirenna i think the environment is ripe for it, but the environment came first. |
@luigirenna @jerry Some of it, perhaps, but also that thinking makes it far too easy to shift the blame to the bad actors. The "community that desires more" here needs to take a long look at itself and the role it plays in enabling this.
Because even if the "Jigar" account is a sockpuppet of the bad actor, the "Dennis" responses are all too common for ordinary entitled users who see Open Source as something to consume rather than something to support.
We cannot lose focus of that problem.
